Pretend

Love

2/13/02



You’re always on my mind



You make my thoughts unwind



I haven’t past a test



Or had a night of rest



I close my eyes real tight



And see your face at night



Somehow this feels so right



And I can’t help but stair



At the object of my prayer



I only wish they knew



All I’d do for you



If given the chance



To turn love into romance



Set your picture on the nightstand



And take hold of your hand



But I can see behind your eyes



Your not concealing many lies



But Damn I wish you were



Because the way you look at her



Makes my stomach turn inside



It makes me wanna run and hide



Denying All I feel for you



But you’d know it wasn’t true



I’d die to have you look at me



Like you do her, and see what you see



I’d live to have you touch my face



Wrapped tightly in a warm embrace



Say you love me; you can lie



‘Cause if you don’t I’ll simply cry



And I’m loving you so much more



Than I ever did all those nights before



And I lay in bed



And I see your face



Suddenly it’s gone



Without a Trace



And I know its love



For there is no doubt



I won’t listen or hear what



You think it’s about



And you don’t have to infer



All the things you feel for her



So come on now, let’s Pretend



That I am her,



And you are you,



Come on know, and I’ll Pretend,



What you Pretend,



Is true
