Pretending

Face to face, and heart to heart
We're so close, yet so far apart.
I close my eyes, I look away.
That's just because I'm not okay.

But I hold on, I stay strong
Wondering if we still belong.

Will we ever say the words we're feeling,
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls?
Will we ever have a happy ending
Or will we forever only be pretending?

Will we a-ah, a-ah-lways, a-ah, a-ah-lways,
a-ah, a-ah-lways be pretending?

How long do I fantasize?
Make believe that it's still alive?
Imagine that I am good enough
And we can choose the ones we love?

But I hold on, I stay strong
Wondering if we still belong.

Will we ever say the words we're feeling,
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls?
Will we ever have a happy ending
Or will we forever only be pretending?

Will we a-ah, a-ah-lways, a-ah, a-ah-lways,
a-ah, a-ah-lways be...

Keeping secrets safe
Every move we make;
Seems like no one's left to know
And it's such a shame
'Cause if you feel the same
How am I supposed to know?

Will we ever say the words we're feeling,
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls?
Will we ever have a happy ending
Or will we forever only be pretending?

Will we a-ah, a-ah-lways, a-ah, a-ah-lways,
a-ah, a-ah-lways be...

Will we a-ah, a-ah-lways, a-ah, a-ah-lways,
a-ah, a-ah-lways be...

Will we a-ah, a-ah-lways, a-ah, a-ah-lways,
a-ah, a-ah-lways be pretending
