Brilliant Disguise by Bruce Springsteen

I hold you in my arms
As the band plays
What are those (1)__________ whispered baby
Just as you (2)________ away
I saw you (3)________ night
Out on the edge of town
I (4)__________ (5)________ your mind
To know just what I've got in this new thing I've found
So tell me (6)________ I see
When I look in your eyes
Is that you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

I heard somebody (7)________ your name
From (8)____________________ our willow
I saw something (9)____________ in shame
Underneath your pillow
Well I've (10)__________ so hard baby
But I (11)________ can't see
What a woman (12)________ you
Is (13)__________ with me
So tell me who I see
When I look in your eyes
Is (14)________ you baby
Or (15)________ 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 (16)________ a (17)____________ pilgrim
I walk this world in wealth
I want to (18)________ if it's you I don't trust
'Cause I damn sure don't trust myself
Now you (19)________ the loving woman
I'll play the faithful man
But just don't look too close
Into the palm of my hand
We stood at the altar
The gypsy swore our future was right
But come the wee wee hours
Well (20)__________ baby the gypsy lied
So (21)________ you (22)________ at me
You (23)____________ look hard and look twice
Is that me baby
Or (24)________ a (25)__________________ disguise

Tonight our bed is cold
I'm lost in the (26)________________ of our love
God have (27)__________ on the man
Who doubts (28)________ he's sure of
