When I Pretend - Jordan Pruitt

Thoughts of you keep running through my head

Images I just want to forget

I look in the mirror and put on a happy face

But nobody sees it And I don’t believe it I bought into every word you said

I never thought that’s something I’d regret

I look at you now and wonder who I see

I’m lost in a frenzy and it’s never ending

The way we used to talk all night

I still get butterflies

when I go there again

I see the way you used to smile

If only for a while

But only if I pretend

If I could draw the world I wanna see

I know just how I’d picture it to be

I’d stand here alone and know that it all was real

You say you don’t need it I know you don’t mean it And I don’t believe it The way we used to talk all night

I still get butterflies

when I go there again

I see the way you used to smile

If only for a while

But only if I pretend

I’m where I wanna be Don’t you wake me from this dream

oh oh oh oh oh, oh yea

When I go there again

Oh I see the way you used to smile

If only for a while

The way we used to talk all night

I still get butterflies

When I go there again, again

Oh I see the way you used to smile

If only for a while

But only if I pretend

Only if I pretend
