Straight out of some story
You walked in, in all your glory
I thought you were perfect for me
I was out of my mind
Looked like i was winning
It was the best love i'd ever been in
Just when we were beginning
The end-you left me behind
And i was looking forward to a happy ending
So much for pretending
I should have known better
Than to think of happy ever
After-you and me together
I was out of my league
I kept my heart hidden
And now i'm wishing that i didn't
Oh who am i kidding
You weren't even intrigued
And i was looking forward to a happy ending
So much for pretending
It could have been beautiful
If i'd only met you
If i'd only let you know
What you meant to me
And if i could i would
Give you a demonstration
Of how my imagination
Thought it ought to be
So much for pretending
Ooh yeah, pretending...pretending
So much for pretending
