Let's Pretend

Let's pretend she doesn't exist

Let's pretend that we're okay

Let's pretend you live here

Let's pretend that this time you'll stay

 

Let's pretend I don't have problems

Let's pretend you were right

Let's pretend I keep my mouth shut

Let's pretend we never fight

 

Let's pretend we have a family

Let's pretend that we're in love

Let's pretend to cuddle all day

Let's pretend to know what we're made of

 

Let's pretend you never said no

Let's pretend we never cried

Let's pretend you want me now

Let's pretend I didn't say goodbye

 

I can beg and I can plead

And in those dark nights I can dream

All I ask is for reality to end

All I ask is... Let's pretend.
