Can't Pretend - Matthew Sweet

I’ll say goodbye, but I’ll put it aside

What I try to find

All the time knowing that nothing will change

Well, I take the time 'cause it’ll take some time

And I cannot help my life

If I can’t pretend that you’re here with me

It hurts my head, it hurts my heart

Now I can’t pretend that you’re here for me

And I’m there for you

I’ll say goodbye, but I’ll put it aside

Till I want to know

I’m spinnin' out

I can see there is no place for me to go

Not for me to go

I cannot help my life

If I can’t pretend that you’re here with me

It hurts my head, it hurts my heart

I can’t pretend that you’re here for me

And I’m there for you

Cannot help my life

If I can’t pretend that you’re here with me

It hurts my head, it hurts my heart

Now I can’t pretend that you’re here for me

That I’m there for you
