Pretending

Let's say that was then here we go again

All our friends are filling the room, it's like a play

And the words that I'll say are not for you

They're for that costume, giving you hope

That when they pull the rope

It's on a happy ending but baby, I'm pretending

Isn't it hard? The windows are barred

But you can't let go and can?t hold onto

Anything sure that's attached and secure

Looking for a lifeline online something to show

That I really do know

So that file I'm sending but baby, I?m pretending

Baby, I'm pretending even though I know better

But I can?t refuse 'cause, although on a ruse

You?ve come to me depending, baby, I'm pretending

Baby, I'm pretending, baby, I'm pretending
