Can We Pretend

[Verse 1] Can we pretend That from now on There is no yesterday Paint a portrait of tomorrow With no colors from today [Chorus] There's a light that shines in your face sometimes That takes my feeling, wraps them around your need But there's a shadow hiding in your heart sometimes That makes my feelings turn back in on me [Verse 2] Can we pretend The pain is gone And go our merry way Paint a portrait of tomorrow With the colors bright and gay [Chorus] There's a light that shines in your face sometimes That takes my feeling, wraps them around your need But there's a shadow hiding in your heart sometimes That makes my feelings turn back in on me [Outro] Can we pretend? Can we pretend? Can we pretend? Can we pretend?
