Let’s Pretend

Let’s Pretend

We’re both feeling 
the pain 
from the strain 
in our hearts 
it’s in our brain 
it’s every-other THOUGHT
in our minds 
so let’s quit thinking 
even if just for a day 
and night 
let’s quit fighting 
the demons 
from lost love 
Together you and I 
LET’S PRETEND 
we are all better 
let’s take these 
broken hearts 
of ours 
and mend two halves 
TOGETHER 
I know it won’t fix 
what has been broken 
I know
when tomorrow comes 
we will still be hurting 
but all that proves is 
we are guilty of loving 
with all we got 
We got a room 
on the water 
the forecast is calling 
for beautiful weather 
so let’s put down 
our heartbreaks 
from others 
that discarded us 
and together 
LET’S PRETEND 
and even if
just for one day and night 
let’s give up the fight 
and put our battles 
on hold 
let’s warm the cold 
let’s put 
our best foot forward 
and take a break 
from heartbreak 
You and I together 
LET’S PRETEND

Wow!! Sir WATERS!!....as soon as I read this I knew it could be a song if you wanted it to be.....It is SO lyrical and has the perfect repetition as to be an ideal chorus ~ 

                                           ~ "You and I....LET'S PRETEND!! "

Very compelling and easily relatable subject matter that sings to the soul!!......ALL STARS & PINNED!!.....well done dear poet brother!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.......T  xo  :  )
