from the songs album Dogman
You took away from me
I tried to get it back
And if you lie to me
I keep it to myself
A trick or treat but then
That don't make it right
I can't remember when
I could say goodnite
Then something comes into my head
And then a change
I work it out somehow
I guess I've got my ways
But then I wonder how did I get it wrong
It doesn't matter now
Chorus:
I pretend.
I pretend.
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
I take the longest walks
They always do me good
I just indulge myself
In sorrow singing blues
But then I have to laugh
Cause it's an outlet too
And if I add it all
It still just wouldn't do
I've come to realize
There's nothing I can lose
So I control myself
Nothing else to do
I'll just remember when
It comes around again
I'd rather be alone
I won't get hurt again
Chorus:
I pretend
I pretend
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Solo
Then something comes
Into my head and then a change
I work it out somehow
I guess I've got my ways
I take the longest walks
It always does me good
I just control myself
Chorus:
I pretend
I pretend
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
