In the stillness of the night
My eyes are closed
My mouth is wide
I could see her face
Her beautiful hair
I could recognize

She looks at me cold
She probably don't know
Who I am
Mommy it's me
It's Keith
You had me back when

But sometimes I like to pretend
That she knows me
That she hopes me
Sometimes I like to pretend
That she knows me
That she hopes me
I quess I can't
Because show doesn't know who I am

My mind it's dreaming
God it's so misleading
Do you think it's 'cause I've grown old
Is it [bad word] what I was told
You cried to leave me

You know I know it's not your fault
You had a husband who was selfish and cold
Believe me I know

Now I hear you used to treat me cold
You dissappeared and left me all alone
I'm sure you didn't know right from wrong
'cause both of you were always getting slow
But sometimes I like to pretend

But ometimes I like to pretend
That she knows me
Sometimes I like to pretend
That she hopes me
Sometimes I like to pretend
That she knows me
Sometimes I like to pretend
That she hopes me
I quess I can't
Because show doesn't know who I am
