I'm pretending that you still love me I'm pretending what never will be
You don't want me but I can't tell cause I'm pretending like I do so well

I should forget you I should be tough
I should move on now find myself a new love
I can't face it yet I'm not strong enough
So I'm pretending

[ steel - fiddle ]

Our friends feel sorry cause I'm alone all the time
There's no need to worry you're right here in my mind
Cause when I'm pretending I feel just fine
I'm pretending
I'm pretending like I do so well
