I Pretend — текст песни (Kim Carnes)

(Martin Page/Brian Fairweather)

Time hasn`t healed the wound
I wish I was in her shoes
She`s got the man I could never have
My kisses were never missed
How it hurts to be second best
Oh let me tell you what I have to do
To get through the night

I pretend that you`re loving me after dark
Pretend that you`re holding me next to your heart
Pretend that you wanted me right from the start
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy
I pretend that your valentine is for me
Pretend that I`m the only one that you need
Pretend that we`re making love in our dreams
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy

Memories that should have died
Come alive when you walk on by
I wish my eyes could turn away
For this heart there is no escape
When the truth is too hard to take
Oh let me tell you what I have to do
To get through the night

I pretend that you`re loving me after dark
Pretend that you`re holding me next to your heart
Pretend that you wanted me right from the start
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy
I pretend that your valentine is for me
Pretend that I`m the only one that you need
Pretend that we`re making love in our dreams
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy

I pretend that you`re loving me after dark
Pretend that you`re holding me next to your heart
Pretend that you wanted me right from the start
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy
I pretend that your valentine is for me
Pretend that I`m the only one that you need
Pretend that we`re making love in our dreams
Oh I`m lost in my fantasy
