lyrics

Pretend with me
Close your eyes and see
Days without regret
And keep them like a secret you won’t soon forget

Pretend with me
I’m all I’ve hoped to be
That this all some awful dream
That this life isn’t so fruitless, callous and mean

It’s that always turning question burning
All the asking taxed upon my mind
Can I leave this place without
Leaving you behind?

Pretend with me
Just pretend with me
Our dreams are carved in white stone
At least as real as all the time we’ve spent alone

Pretend with me
You’re not just a memory
That I’ll stand to see you once again
And I won’t just have these traces on which to depend

It’s that always pending never ending
Ticking time playing tricks on my mind
Can I leave this place without
Leaving you behind?

It’s that always turning question burning
All the asking taxed upon my mind
Can I leave this place without
Leaving you behind?
