Don't You Pretend

(album: Meaning Of Life - 2017)

Don't you pretend that you don't
Need a little more from me
You're acting like it's nothing
We both know it's something
Even in the dark anyone can see

So don't you pretend that you're not
Wishing I was next to you
Hot and cold as ever
Want me but you never
Let your guard down and I need some proof

You make me want you but you don't know where this ends
Baby, I wanna love you but I can't take the suspense

I said

Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend, oh yeah

Try to deny and be cool
As you walk away from me
Steady as you go
But trembling in your voice shows
There's a part of you slowly dying

I'm not gonna wait and just play
Victim to your vanities
I don't have the time babe
Tell me that you're mine babe
Why you keeping your feelings from me?

You make me want you but you don't know where this ends
Baby, I wanna love you but I can't take the suspense

I said

Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend, oh yeah

Don't you run and hide
Let's find out tonight
I got a feeling that you wanna fall
Tell me yes or no
I can't take no more
I want the real thing or nothing at all

I just wanna see
Who you trying to be, yeah

I said

Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)

Oh, yeah no, no

Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend
(I just wanna see who's in front of me, who you trying to be)
Don't you pretend, oh
