Swamp Dogg, Justin Vernon, Guitar Shorty - I'll Pretend lyrics
[Swamp Dogg, Justin Vernon, Guitar Shorty - I'll Pretend lyrics]
And you'll be back in a week or maybe two
And when the phone rings I'll
Pretend it's you calling
To tell me you miss me
And you're coming home soon
I'll pretend I don't hear
When silence tells me
That I'll have to get by on my own
I'll pretend I don't hear when
Loneliness speaks so clear
And try to tell me you're not coming home
(not coming home)
Right now my life ain't nothing but a dream
How long can I fool myself?
Into believing you're coming back to me
I can see you laying in his bed
Like I caught the two of you in fact
Everybody told me it was coming
But, I chose to be blind
I'll pretend your clothes are
Hanging in the closet
And I'll pretend your perfume fills the air
And as I sit in our favourite restaurant
I'll pretend that you're meeting me there
I'll pretend when I visit our old friends
That you're sitting down by my side
And when our old friends ask how am I doing?
I'll pretend I'm not losing my mind
Although they know I'm lying
They know I'm lying i can't live like this
I forgive you please come back
I can't live like this i love you
And I forgive you and I want you
