Sara Bareilles — Pretend

[Verse 1] I know we're headed for the open road Don't know where to go We've got our separate ways in the same direction Getting nowhere slow [Verse 2] We saw the end was coming, the credits rolling in A few hundred miles back Oh, but our horizon tends to be deceiving You never quite know where it's at [Chorus] Baby, can we just pretend We're not telling lies, and this ain't ending? No talk, no time, no goodbyes Nothing left of expectations Just you and me, impulsive creations With an alibi [Verse 2] If a moment is precious for its brevity This one's good as gold It's a compromise of little white lies The truth remains untold [Chorus] Baby, can we just pretend We're not telling lies, and this ain't ending? No talk, no time, no goodbyes Nothing left of expectations Just you and me, impulsive creations With an alibi [Bridge] Do what you will, but don't go, darling What story ends before it's started? Final words, and we'll be on our way, yeah One last thing, my dear departed Save tomorrow for the brokenhearted Aw, don't let it break today Don't let it break today Don't let it break today Don't let it break today No, not today [Outro] Oh, yeah, oh Hey, yeah, oh Hey, yeah, oh Hey, yeah, oh
