Pretend
Good to see you
My you're looking well
Freedom pleases you
Honey I can tell
You just can't imagine
The pain that I've been through
Why is it so easy on you
Pretend
As a favor to a friend
Say you miss me now and then
Would it hurt you to pretend
I don't care if it aint't true
Would you say you're hurtin' too
Won't you please pretend
It has only
Been a month or so
But to see you
One would never know
It's hurtin' me so badly
To know you've gone away
Must you look so happy today
(Chorus)
I'm all right
I'm doing okay
I'm already over you
And I'm just pretending too
(Chorus)
Tony Arata
