| In the stillness of the night
|
| My eyes are closed
|
| My mouth is wide
|
| I could see her face
|
| Her beautiful hair
|
| I could recognize
|
| She looks at me cold
|
| She probably don’t know how I am
|
| Mommy it’s me
|
| It’s Keith
|
| You had me back when
|
| But sometimes I like to pretend
|
| That she knows me
|
| That she holds me
|
| But sometimes I like to pretend
|
| That she knows me
|
| That she holds me
|
| I guess I can’t
|
| Because she doesn’t know who I am
|
| My mind it’s dreaming
|
| God it’s so misleading
|
| Do you think it’s 'cause I’ve grown old
|
| Is it true that what I was told
|
| You cried to leave me
|
| You know I know it’s not your fault
|
| You had a husband who was selfish and cold
|
| Believe me I know
|
| Now I hear you used to treat me cold
|
| You disappeared and left me all alone
|
| I’m sure you didn’t know right from wrong
|
| 'Cause both of you were always getting stoned
|
| But sometimes I like to pretend (repeat)
|
| That she knows me
|
| Sometimes I like to pretend
|
| That she holds me
|
| Sometimes I like to pretend
|
| That she knows me
|
| Sometimes I like to pretend
|
| That she holds me
|
| I guess I can’t
|
| Because she doesn’t know who I am |
