Lyrics
0:32How many times must we tell the tale
0:37How many times must we fall
0:43Living in lost memory
0:46You just recalled
0:52Working on the sound of the band
0:57Trying to get the music right
1:02Two go out working
1:05Three stay home at night
1:11That's when she said she was pretending
1:16Like she knew the plan
1:21That's when I knew she was pretending
1:25Pretending to understand
1:30Pretending pretending
1:40Pretending pretending
1:50Satisfied but lost in love
1:56Situations change
2:01You're never who you used to think you are
2:04How strange
2:10That's when she said she was pretending
2:15Like she knew the plan
2:19That's when I knew she was pretending
2:24Pretending to understand
2:29Pretending pretending
2:38Pretending pretending
3:08I get lost in alibis
3:14Sadness can't prevail
3:19Everybody knows strong love
3:22Can't fail
3:26Don't be pretending about how you feel
3:36Don't be pretending that your love is real
3:46Don't be pretending about how you feel
3:56Don't be pretending don't love is real
4:06Pretending pretending
4:16Pretending pretending
4:22Pretending pretending
How many times must we tell the tale How many times must we fall Living in lost memory You just recalled Working on the sound of the band Trying to get the music right Two go out working Three stay home at night That's when she said she was pretending Like she knew the plan That's when I knew she was pretending Pretending to understand Pretending pretending Pretending pretending Satisfied but lost in love Situations change You're never who you used to think you are How strange That's when she said she was pretending Like she knew the plan That's when I knew she was pretending Pretending to understand Pretending pretending Pretending pretending I get lost in alibis Sadness can't prevail Everybody knows strong love Can't fail Don't be pretending about how you feel Don't be pretending that your love is real Don't be pretending about how you feel Don't be pretending don't love is real Pretending pretending Pretending pretending Pretending pretending
