Lyrics

Let's Pretend

[Verse 1] Let's not make it into a big thing Let's not get lost in this I know it is, I know we could I guess we surely would Let's pretend it's not It doesn't mean a thing [Verse 2] Let's not blow it out of all sense As though it meant so much It's all we've thought about for weeks Not every time your lips meet mine, I think of her But when her hands reach out, I think of you
