//Pretending to Sleep
āv1
I like what you do
with the lights turned way down low
I heard you call out my name
What's running through your mind
as I lay beside you tryin to decide if
I love you,
or if I just love the game?
āļæ½chorus 1
I would like to say that I'm falling in love
I do know for sure that I want you
Our story seems destined for the silver screen
But girl I wonder bout what's in your dreams
If you're like me
If after all this life has taught you you're suspicious of the meant-to-be
It's just that I can't help but
hope I'm not the
only one pretending to sleep
āv2
I like how you laugh
Let your smileās departure leave an afterimage
of the jokes you donāt tell
the thoughts you donāt say
But when the mystery fades
And the smile no longer blinds
will the woman whoās behind it be my home
or just a stop on the way?
āc2
I would like to say that I'm falling in love
I do know for sure that I want you
Our story seems destined for the silver screen
But girl I wonder bout what's in your dreams
If you're like me
If after all this life has taught you you're suspicious of the meant-to-be
āoutro
I guess I canāt help but
hope Iām not the
only one whoās playing for keeps.
And I canāt help but
hope Iām not the only one
pretending to sleep.
