Kim Carnes - I Pretend lyrics

Time hasn't healed the wound I wish I was in her shoes She's got the man I could never have My kisses were never missed How it hurts to be second best Oh let me tell you what I have to do To get through the night I pretend that you're loving me after dark Pretend that you're holding me next to your heart Pretend that you wanted me right from the start Oh I'm lost in my fantasy I pretend that your valentine is for me Pretend that I'm the only one that you need Pretend that we're making love in our dreams Oh I'm lost in my fantasy Memories that should have died Come alive when you walk on by I wish my eyes could turn away For this heart there is no escape When the truth is too hard to take Oh let me tell you what I have to do To get through the night I pretend that you're loving me after dark Pretend that you're holding me next to your heart Pretend that you wanted me right from the start Oh I'm lost in my fantasy I pretend that your valentine is for me Pretend that I'm the only one that you need Pretend that we're making love in our dreams Oh I'm lost in my fantasy I pretend that you're loving me after dark Pretend that you're holding me next to your heart Pretend that you wanted me right from the start Oh I'm lost in my fantasy I pretend that your valentine is for me Pretend that I'm the only one that you need Pretend that we're making love in our dreams Oh I'm lost in my fantasy
