Just pretend, I’m holding you 
And whispering things soft and low, 
And think of me, how it’s gonna be 
Just pretend I didn’t go. 

When I walked away, I heard you say 
If you need me, you know what to do. 
I knew it then, I’d be back again 
Just pretend I’m right there with you. 

And [bad word] flying to you, oh yes 
All the crying is [bad word]  
Oh, I will hold you and love you again 
But until then, we’ll just pretend. 

Oh, it's funny but I can't recall the things 
We said or why you're cry, 
But now I know it was wrong to go 
I belong here by your side. 

Yes, [bad word] flying to you, oh yes 
All the crying is [bad word]  
Oh, I will hold you and love you again 
But until then, we’ll just pretend. 
Oh, I will hold you and love you again 
But until then, we’ll just pretend.
