TESSA RAE - Sweet Pretender lyrics

[Verse 1] You wrote me a poem A fantasy Professed your love to me in half lucidity You could not make this bluebird fly In the darkness in the darkness Of your half closed eyes [Pre-chorus] I fell in love with a face The way you held me Your body your grace But the real you could never take that memory's place [Chorus] I'll be your sweet pretender How you gonna love me if you don't know me? You never could remember Anything I told you not a single story This love won't last forever But I'll be your sweet pretender [Verse 2] I wrote you a love song A prophecy Professed my love for you To the depths of my own sea I could not make this bluebird fly Even though, even though, even though I tried [Pre-Chorus] I fell in love with a face The way you held me Your body your grace But the real you could never take that memories place [Chorus] I'll be your sweet pretender How you gonna love me if you don't know me? You never could remember Anything I told you not a single story This love won't last forever But I'll be your sweet pretender I'll be your sweet pretender How you gonna love me if you don't know me? You never could remember Anything I told you not a single story This love won't last forever But I'll be your sweet pretender [Bridge] You never really tasted what I could give I gotta get away I got this life to live I was higher, higher than you could reach But for now, for now I guess I'll be [Chorus] I'll be your sweet pretender How you gonna love me if you don't know me? You never could remember Anything I told you not a single story This love won't last forever But I'll be your sweet pretender I'll be your sweet pretender How you gonna love me if you don't know me? You never could remember Anything I told you not a single story This love won't last forever But I'll be your sweet pretender
