[Intro]
I know that you know the feeling
I know that we're giving in
I know that you know the feeling
[Verse 1]
I woke up with my head in the clouds
Asleep with you on my mind
I guess I need to figure this out
Before I see you tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll hide my favorite scars with the shirt and the tie
You'll let your hair fall down while you're saving my life
I'll leave my bourbon nerves for your body of wine
If I come over again
[Chorus]
We can pretend
We're wanting different things and then
We can pretend
We'll never end up here, end up here again
[Verse 2]
You found out I was broken at heart
And you read me Audre Lorde
When each word from your lips made a mark
I didn't care anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
I play my favorite songs when I'm driving you home
You let your hair fall down when you know we're alone
It's such a careful dance when your feet have been cold
The only way to defend
[Chorus]
We can pretend
We are wanting different things and then
We can pretend
We'll never end up here, end up here again
[Bridge]
Oh we can pretend all day but we know that it's true
And then pretend to see from the different view
I've got a whole routine I've been playing for you
Over and over again
[Outro]
We can pretend
We can pretend
I know that you know the feeling
I know that we're giving in
I know that you know the feeling
I know that we're giving in
I know that you know the feeling
I know that we're giving in
I know that you know the feeling
We can pretend
