If you
If you’d let me pretend
I’d pretend you’d
Never walked through that door
I’d just let you walk by
I’d just let you walk on
If you’d let me pretend
If you
If you’d asked me when
When’d I let you
Hold my heart in your hands
I’d say you never have
I’d say you never did
If you’d let me pretend
But what good is it thinking what could have been
When now I’m sitting, watching
Watching the sky as it grows dim
As I just think about
Where we were
And where we could be
Where we should be
Every word
Spoken to me
Keeps repeating
In my head with all these might have beens
If you
If you’d let me pretend
I’d pretend you’d
Kissed me goodnight before I slept
I’d have dreams that were clear
I’d have dreams while you were near
If you’d let me pretend
If you
If you’d asked me to stop
Tell me no fear
No matter what you’d still be here
I’d keep up my guard
I’d keep in my love
If you’d let me pretend
But what good is it thinking what could have been
When now I’m sitting, watching
Watching the sky as it grows dim
As I just think about
Where we were
And where we could be
Where we should be
Every word
Spoken to me
Keeps repeating
In my head with all these might have beens
Why couldn't life be that book I’ve written
All the thousand times inside my head
All the characters they know their lines
And the hero always saves the day
Where we were
And where we could be
Where we should be
Every word
Spoken to me
Keeps repeating
In my head with all these might have beens
