Every night

[Verse 1]
Do you remember
The way that the stars looked
The night when we first met ?
One touch and I'm hooked
I try to stay focused
On the stupid sitcom
Playing in front of me

[Chorus]
I try to pretend I didn't want you closer
I tried to pretend that I didn't want to know you
Every night, after that, I thought "I love you"
You get me up just trying to pretend you want me to

[Verse 2]
Do you remember the way that my eyes lit up
When you first said you can't get me off your mind ? Oh...
I was so dizzy, you made me feel crazy (*turning page*)
You'd call and we would laugh until
The lazy hours of the morning

[Chorus]
I try to pretend I didn't want you closer
I tried to pretend that I didn't want to know you
And every night, after that, I thought of you
You keep me up just trying to pretend you want me to

[Verse 3]
One year of heartbeats and drunken adventures
One year of footsteps always beside me
One time we said it, the thunder and lightning
You lit my cigarette while I cried

[Chorus]
I try to pretend I didn't want you closer
I tried to pretend that I didn't want to know you
Tried to pretend
I tried to pretend
I tried, I tried, I tried
