When I Pretend
Lyrics
Thoughts of you keep running through my head
Images I just want to forget
I look in the mirror and put on a happy face
But nobody sees it
And I don't believe it
I bought into every word you said
I never thought that's something I'd regret
I look at you now and wonder who I see
I'm lost in a frenzy and it's never ending
[Chorus]
The way we used to talk all night
I still get butterflies
When I go there again
I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
But only if I pretend
If I could draw the world I wanna see
I know just how I'd picture it to be
I'd stand here alone and know that it all was real
You say you don't need it
I know you don't mean it
And I don't believe it
[Chorus]
I'm where I wanna be
Don't you wake me from this dream
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh yea
When I go there again
Oh I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
The way we used to talk all night
I still get butterflies
When I go there again, again
Oh I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
But only if I pretend
Only if I pretend
