Let’s Pretend

We’re both feelingÂ
the painÂ
from the strainÂ
in our heartsÂ
it’s in our brainÂ
it’s every-other THOUGHT
in our mindsÂ
so let’s quit thinkingÂ
even if just for a dayÂ
and nightÂ
let’s quit fightingÂ
the demonsÂ
from lost loveÂ
Together you and IÂ
LET’S PRETENDÂ
we are all betterÂ
let’s take theseÂ
broken heartsÂ
of oursÂ
and mend two halvesÂ
TOGETHERÂ
I know it won’t fixÂ
what has been brokenÂ
I know
when tomorrow comesÂ
we will still be hurtingÂ
but all that proves isÂ
we are guilty of lovingÂ
with all we gotÂ
We got a roomÂ
on the waterÂ
the forecast is callingÂ
for beautiful weatherÂ
so let’s put downÂ
our heartbreaksÂ
from othersÂ
that discarded usÂ
and togetherÂ
LET’S PRETENDÂ
and even if
just for one day and nightÂ
let’s give up the fightÂ
and put our battlesÂ
on holdÂ
let’s warm the coldÂ
let’s putÂ
our best foot forwardÂ
and take a breakÂ
from heartbreakÂ
You and I togetherÂ
LET’S PRETENDÂ
