Now, I could pretend the sun shines when I ask it to And I could pretend that I fill out the moon
And I could pretend that the waves roll in on my cue
And I could pretend but that’s just not the truth
That’s just not the truth
Well, I could pretend that I bought an island for no use
And I could pretend that I had the money to And I could pretend that my friends would come over
Just to see my ocean view
And I could pretend but that’s just not the truth
That’s just not the truth
I could pretend that there’s another who’s just like you
And I could pretend that I could find someone new
And I could pretend that the earth would keep spinning
If I’m not where you come home to And I could pretend but that’s just not the truth
That’s just no the truth
