Pretend
Be like me tellin' you that the sun doesn't shine
Every time that it rains
And that the moon doesn't come out at night
'Til the sun comes back again
And like me tellin' you that a cowboy
Has never rode across the plains
Is about the same as me tellin' you
That my heart's not filled with pain
So maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me
Oh, you never loved me
Be like me tellin' you that the desert
It ain't covered in sand
And the way I feel in my heart for you
Fit into God's plan
And like me tellin' you that the star down in Texas
Ain't standin' alone
And the four walls of this empty house
Make me feel right at home
So maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me
Oh, you never loved me
Be like me tellin' you that I'm not the kind
To ever make-believe
But when I opened my eyes this mornin'
You were still there lyin' right next to me
Maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me, yeah
Oh, you never loved me
I wish you never loved me, yeah
Every time that it rains
And that the moon doesn't come out at night
'Til the sun comes back again
And like me tellin' you that a cowboy
Has never rode across the plains
Is about the same as me tellin' you
That my heart's not filled with pain
So maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me
Oh, you never loved me
Be like me tellin' you that the desert
It ain't covered in sand
And the way I feel in my heart for you
Fit into God's plan
And like me tellin' you that the star down in Texas
Ain't standin' alone
And the four walls of this empty house
Make me feel right at home
So maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me
Oh, you never loved me
Be like me tellin' you that I'm not the kind
To ever make-believe
But when I opened my eyes this mornin'
You were still there lyin' right next to me
Maybe I should just pretend
That you never touched my hand
Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
There's no reason to live again
Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
And drove this car back across town
Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
It would all make sense if I could pretend
That you never loved me, yeah
Oh, you never loved me
I wish you never loved me, yeah
