Pretend Love Lyrics
Don't be fooled by my words
Don't be fooled by my song
If you choose to believe them
You'll plainly be wrong
I have love for my family
I have love for my friends
That's as far as it goes
And I must let you know
My love for you was pretend
Pretend love, pretend love
Don't be mistaken, I've only been fakin'
Pretend love
Don't you know I've a gift
And I've wrapped it in truth
Your birthday's tomorrow
But the gift is not for you
But if I came with a present
I would bring you a clue
Hopes that you'd finally see
That your feelings for me
Will never be returned
Pretend love, pretend love
Don't be mistaken, I've only been fakin'
Pretend love
Pretend love, pretend love
Don't be mistaken, I've only been faking
Pretend love
