Lyrics
Pretend
© Ross Vick
VERSE 1: Living together was madness
Living alone is worse
Living without the one you love?s a curse
?Cause there will never be true love like hers
You may fall in love again
But you know it?s only pretend
VERSE 2: As you turned and walked out that evening
And the night time swallowed you whole
What price did the devil pay for your soul?
?Cause there will never be true love like hers
You may fall in love again
But you know it?s only pretend
Bridge 1: Other things have filled you up
But the satisfaction is fleeting
After the thrill you know you will
Feel her heart beating
VERSE 3: Never was there so much given
Nothing had made so much sense
It was a love so pure with no pretense
There will never be true love like hers
You may fall in love again
But you know it?s only pretend
Bridge 2: Other things have filled you up
But the satisfaction is fleeting
After the thrill you know you will
Feel her heart beating in side you still
VERSE 4: Life?s full of second chances
You?ve had more than a few
And when you get them, what do you do?
?Cause there will never be true love like hers
You may fall in love again
But you know it?s only pretend
