Pretend

Be like me tellin' you that the sun doesn't shine
 Every time that it rains
 And that the moon doesn't come out at night
 'Til the sun comes back again
 And like me tellin' you that a cowboy
 Has never rode across the plains
 Is about the same as me tellin' you
 That my heart's not filled with pain
 So maybe I should just pretend
 That you never touched my hand
 Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
 There's no reason to live again
 Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
 And drove this car back across town
 Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
 It would all make sense if I could pretend
 That you never loved me
 Oh, you never loved me
 Be like me tellin' you that the desert
 It ain't covered in sand
 And the way I feel in my heart for you
 Fit into God's plan
 And like me tellin' you that the star down in Texas
 Ain't standin' alone
 And the four walls of this empty house
 Make me feel right at home
 So maybe I should just pretend
 That you never touched my hand
 Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
 There's no reason to live again
 Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
 And drove this car back across town
 Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
 It would all make sense if I could pretend
 That you never loved me
 Oh, you never loved me
 Be like me tellin' you that I'm not the kind
 To ever make-believe
 But when I opened my eyes this mornin'
 You were still there lyin' right next to me
 Maybe I should just pretend
 That you never touched my hand
 Then maybe I wouldn't feel like
 There's no reason to live again
 Maybe I shouldn't have turned around
 And drove this car back across town
 Knowin' I'm the one thing you don't wanna see
 It would all make sense if I could pretend
 That you never loved me, yeah
 Oh, you never loved me
 I wish you never loved me, yeah
