WHY PRETEND
© 2004 Kurt Hagan & Jon Robbin

VERSE 1
You didn't mean it as a question
When you said "why pretend?"
But I'm gonna answer anyway
I hope you'll understand
The past few years have chipped away
At what we thought we had
Now you're sayin' let's be honest
I promise you I am

CHORUS
Why pretend?
'Cause it might be our only chance
The only way to bring our love back from the edge
Let make-believe become reality
Fan these ashes back to flames again
That's why pretend

VERSE 2
It's bein' like we were before
Takin' midnight walks
Sleepin' in each other's arms
Listenin' when we talk
You call it goin' through the motions
I swear it's more than that
It's tryin' to retrace our steps
To get back on the path (so?)

CHORUS

BRIDGE
They say when you picture what you want
It'll help make it come true
They might be right, it's worth a try
If it can save me and you

TAG CHORUS
Why pretend?
'Cause in my heart I know we can
Turn this thing around, baby startin' now
Let make-believe become reality
I can see us fall in love again
That's why pretend

So we can fall in love again
That's why pretend
