Brilliant Disguise by Bruce Springsteen

I hold you in my arms
As the band plays
What are those words whispered baby
Just as you turn away
I saw you last night
Out on the edge of town
I wanna read your mind
To know just what I've got in (1)________ new thing I've found
So tell me what I see
When I (2)________ in your eyes
Is that you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

I heard somebody call your name
From underneath our willow
I saw (3)__________________ tucked in shame
Underneath your pillow
Well I've tried so hard baby
But I just can't see
What a woman (4)________ you
Is (5)__________ with me
So tell me who I see
When I look in (6)________ eyes
Is that you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

Now look at me baby
Struggling to do everything right
And then it all falls apart
(Oh) When out go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim
I walk this world in wealth
I want to know if it's you I don't trust
'Cause I damn sure don't trust myself
Now you play the loving woman
I'll play the faithful man
But just don't look too close
Into the (7)________ of my hand
We stood at the altar
The gypsy swore our future was right
But (8)________ the wee wee hours
Well maybe baby the gypsy lied
So when you look at me
You better look (9)________ and (10)________ twice
Is that me baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

Tonight our bed is cold
I'm lost in the darkness of our love
God have mercy on the man
Who doubts what he's sure of
