GDon't pretend if you don't mean it
Don't pretend if it's not D7true
Don't preGtend you're with another
When you say  D7honey I love Gyou
Don't preCtend his arms are Garound you
That his lips kiss you and not D7mine
When we're Calone you're still preGtending
So don't pretend  D7honey I'm not Gblind
NC                       
Don't pretend that you are happy
Don't pretend every thing's alD7right
Don't preGtend that he's there with you
When you lay  D7in my arms each Gnight
No don't preCtend his arms are Garound you
That his lips kiss you and not D7mine
When we're Calone you're still not Gwith me
So don't pretend  D7honey I'm not Gblind
No don't pretend  D7honey I'm not Gblind
