sitting across the room from you
try to pretend that your not there
just laugh and smile with my friends
and pretend that i dont care

keep my eyes away from yours
pretend that i cant see
but glance your way when no ones looking
in hopes your glancing back at me

my friends tell you i still love you
i pretend that thats a lie
all i want to do is hold you
but i pretend i dont still cry

i fallow close behind you
and pretend i didnt see you there
throw a little smile your way
and still pretend that i dont care

i put my heart in your hands
but you gave it back in two
you talk to me still sometimes
i pretend i've better things to do

i look for you in places
where together we used to go
and hold my head up in a lie
pretending i dont want to know

i still get lost in your eyes
but i pretend im staring at the wall
i cry when no ones looking
and pretend that i dont care for you at all

but im sick of playing make belive
and pretending your still there
i want to hold you in my arms
with out pretending that you care

you're still all that keeps me living
but i pretend that im alright
the only reason i wake up in the morning
is cuz i dream of you at night

so lets preted that we've gone back in time
cuz the truth is, i love you
so lets pretend for just one moment
that you still love me too
