Pretend lyrics

Have you ever noticed that

She never smiles in photographs?

I used to think it was just that

She was unhappy

But now I know it's something else

Something I had never known

She can never stop herself

From thinking of what might have been



And does she pretend

To keep me from breaking

And does she pretend

And what should I expect from someone so broken?



And when we fell in love I thought

I could make her smile again

But the camera never lies you know

It's true that she's still waiting

And when we make love it seems

That she's not always there with me

I can never tell if she's

Gone somewhere, I can never be



And does she pretend

To keep me from breaking

And does she pretend

And what should I expect from someone so broken?



And if we had a second chance

To live our lives out again

Would she smile in photographs

And never have to pretend
