They
told
me
you
had
gone,
and
hiding,
wisely,
my
reaction,
I
felt
a
need
to
cry.
In
an
instant
life
changed
and
I
was
alone.
Faking
gaiety
I
carried
on
as
an
actress
in
a
play.
No
one
must
ever
know
--
not
even
you,
my
phantom
love,
so
brave
I've
been
while
loving
you
with
all
my
being
when
you
heeded
not.
I
will
wear
my
smiles
for
everyone
to
see,
and
they
won't
suspect
a
heart
is
weeping,
a
soul
is
mourning
because
my
love
has
gone.
