Every time You're not at home You say that she's with you Isn't it time You made it known That she isn't with you She's far away And there she will stay Oh why pretend You didn't want her When her heart grew fonder Oh, of you by her side You didn't love her So she found another Oh, why pretend It's got to end. 'cos everyone knows You're all alone So why pretend You didn't want her When her heart grew fonder Oh, of you by her side You didn't love her So she found another Oh, why pretend It's got to end Oh everyone knows You're all alone So why pretend And everyone knows That you're on your own Why not let it end Your baby's gone And you're all alone So why pretend.
