Let's Pretend

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
