When I Pretend

We went through August

Not a drop of sun fell before us

Don't ignore the signs

I know you'll get out of bed for the sunshine

The sun's gaze will find us again

Remember the playlist I made for you?

Much more than friends

I always hide my pain from you,

but you always seem to know when I pretend

That look, so moreish

Lost in your eyes

Just like a tourist

Have I overstepped the line?

You know I meant what I said

Every time

The sun's gaze will find us again

Remember the playlist I made for you?

Much more than friends

I always hide my pain from you,

but you always seem to know when I pretend
