The Madden Brothers

Love Pretenders

Maybe we should just be love pretenders

Cause baby we don’t need these scars

Never gonna let my heart surrender

I’m afraid to fall too hard

I’ve dropped my soul down the darkest hole

And I can’t find my way out

But I retrace the steps I take

And I try to figure out

Why do I do this to myself?

Why do I let my guard down?

Why do I just replay the past?

Why do I let you come around?

We’ve both been here before

Yeah, we’ve both been here

Maybe we should just be love pretenders

Baby, we don’t need these scars

Never gonna let my heart surrender

I’m afraid to fall too hard

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

I’m optimistic, that if we risk it

We could work it out

But it’s a gamble, when hearts get tangled

We could come unwound

Why do we do this to ourselves

When we need each other?

Why don’t we try to make this last?

Why don’t we try to stick around?

We’ve both been here before,

Yeah, we’ve both been here

Maybe we should just be love pretenders

Baby, we don’t need these scars

Never gonna let my heart surrender

I’m afraid to fall too hard

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

Some say don’t waste your days playing it so safe

Love takes a heart brave enough to play

Maybe we should just be love pretenders

Baby, we don’t need these scars

Never gonna let my heart surrender

I’m afraid to fall too hard

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa, oh-whoa

Love pretenders

Some say don’t waste your days playing it so safe

Love takes a heart brave enough to break
