Pretending

If I could read your mind
Maybe we’d be fine
If you could turn back time
Would you still be mine
I swear that you don’t have to go
This could be the end
Will you steal a part of my soul
Will we still be friends
The real you did I ever know
Tonight let’s just pretend
Say that you love me now
Honestly it’s ok if you’re pretending
Let’s make love on the couch
One last time I’m ok with just pretending
So what if we’re just going through the motions
At least we won’t be lonely in the moment
Lie to me one more night
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
(Pretend that you love me)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
I go drinking sometimes
To wash you out of my mind
When I meet someone new
I still pretend that she’s you
I swear that you don’t have to go
This could be the end
Will you steal a part of my soul
Are we even friends
The real you will I ever know
Tonight let’s just pretend
Say that you love me now
Honestly it’s ok if you’re pretending
Let’s make love on the couch
One last time I’m ok with just pretending
So what if we’re just going through the motions
At least we won’t be lonely in the moment
Lie to me just one night
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
(Pretend that you love me)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
I swear that you don’t have to go
This is the end
Yeah, you stole a part of my soul
Were we ever friends
One last night
Just pretend
Say that, say that, say that, say that…
Say that you love me now
Honestly it’s ok if you’re pretending
Let’s make love on the couch
One last time I’m ok with just pretending
So what if we’re just going through the motions
At least we won’t be lonely in the moment
Lie to me one more night
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
(Pre-tend)
(Pretend that you love me)
'Cause if we’re honest we were always just pretending
