Let's Pretend

Well, I take a drink from the cup

And she politely knocked it over

I said, "I think that I've had enough"

And she says "No, no, this is not over

Because there is no innocence or beauty in

What I have seen in your face so

Let's pretend"

Got up to take a walk towards the door

But my feet they wouldn't hold me

She said, "You should never have come into this bar"

And I said, "No, I may never have come in

But I have been sold down the river too

Yeah, somebody sold me

It could have been you"

So every day as time slips away

There is nothing to contain it

These eyes of mine don't see the sense

In trying to control it

Because every time you stand up you're bound to fall

And sometimes you only

Just pretend

Have you ever seen the blind man as he stumbles and falls?

I'm just like the blind man

My hands are tied

I can't see anymore

Well, I took a drink from the cup

And she politely knocked it over

And I said, "I think I've had enough"

And she said, "No, no, this is not over

Because there is no innocence or beauty in

What I have seen in this place so

Let's pretend

Let's pretend

Wanna pretend

Let's pretend"
