Pretense Lyrics

You've got this look in your eye

Like you don't know where to go

I've got this feeling inside

That shakes me down to my bones

The path ahead is unclear

Now it's the moment of truth

Will we confront all our fears

Or will I wait here for you

Still stuck on all of the things

So many others have said

You know that I cannot sing

Of what may lay ahead

But rest assured in the end

Everything will make sense

I'm not one for pretense

So let the healing commence

Surely you're not giving up

Not as long as I'm in love

Sing to me a melody

Let your calm overtake me

Keep it short and make it sweet

Your voice is the sweetest thing

Happiness is round the bend

I've had this feeling of loss

I never knew how to shake

Can't get my feelings across

Sometimes it keeps me awake

I spend the days on my phone

Drowning out all the sound

It's left me feeling alone

It's brought my heart to a pound

But when you enter the room

It's like you've turned on the lights

Diminishing all the gloom

And giving reason to fight

Just know you're not alone here

And that's a promise, I swear

Till you've lost all your fear

And I've lost all my hair

On my watch, you won't give up

Not as long as there's still us

Sing to me a melody

Let your calm overtake me

Keep it short and make it sweet

Your voice is the sweetest thing

Happiness is round the bend

I won't say anything

We will face the storm together

No need to fear a thing

You and I will face the weather

You've got this look in your eye

Like you can finally see

The two of us are up high

And I am down on one knee

I want a lifetime with you

I know that you want it too

So there's no need to feel blue

Forever I will be true

Sing to me a melody

Let your calm overtake me

Keep it short and make it sweet

Your voice is the sweetest thing

Happiness is round the bend
