Walk Away

Pretend (verb): To deceive; to allege or profess insincerely; to give a false appearance of.

I'll pretend I didn't hear your heart skip a beat when I said your name.
I'll pretend we didn't have a connection.
I'll pretend that I never wanted to kiss you under the stars that night.
I'll pretend that I don't see your face every morning when I wake up.
I'll pretend that you're not the only one who knows how to make me smile when all I want to do is cry.
And you can pretend there's someone else out there who can put up with your drunken antics and love you even more the next morning.
And you can pretend you don't know the sound of my voice.
And you can pretend that you don't see a freedom in my eyes that you're longing to dive into.
And you can pretend that you don't smile everytime you hear my laugh.
And you can pretend that I didn't give you a reason to believe that Love is alive.

I'll pretend I never met you, and you can pretend that you don't regret not stepping out in faith to take a chance with the only girl that could ever save you.
