Pretend - Luke Christopher

Hey, see, I know this ain’t something that you do

But seeing as it is just me and you

Why can’t we spend this one night together?

And hey, see, we both have this whole damn world to see

So baby, if this night is all we’ll be

We should pretend we’re in love

Now look, I ain’t really trying to pressure you

I just feel like if I’m only here tonight then it’s best if I’m lying next to

you

I know it’s hard to understand the situation

'Cause you’re used to people telling you that you gotta be patient and you do

I ain’t tellin' you to throw yourself around

But there’s a chance that I may never come back to this town

And so is it possible to put your heart into sex

And wake up in the morning, quickly put it back in your chest?

Is it?

'Cause if it is then tonight I love you

And tonight I couldn’t think of anyone above you

Tonight could be forever, your heart see, I could borrow

Then up until the morning, we ain’t talking 'bout tomorrow

I know you think I am, but I ain’t used to this

I never walk around the clubs choosing who to kiss

Tonight is 'cause you different from them others

See, we can get a ring and be married under the covers

Hey, see, I know this ain’t something that you do

But seeing as it is just me and you

Why can’t we spend this one night together?

And hey, see, we both have this whole damn world to see

So baby, if this night is all we’ll be

We should pretend we’re in love

If you need anything tonight you know I’m here for you

And when you talk, I’m listening, I’m not just hearin' you

My goal tonight’s nothing to do with gettin' into your pants

I’m lookin' for a lover, a beautiful romance

And so, you know whatever goes down

Tonight you are my only, and trust me, the heart pounds

Tell me why I’m getting nervous on surface when you’re around

And I ain’t drinkin', but I feel like I’m lifted up off the ground

Hey, see, I know this ain’t something that you do

But seeing as it is just me and you

Why can’t we spend this one night together?

And hey, see, we both have this whole damn world to see

So baby, if this night is all we’ll be

We should pretend we’re in love
