Let's pretend, okay?
Let's play a game
Close your eyes
Focus on my voice
Lean forward to me
And listen closely
Let's pretend that
Neither of us are broken
That our hearts aren't bloodied
That they aren't bruised
Let us pretend our souls
Are smooth and whole
Not cracked with pieces missing
Focus on the feeling of my hand
And I'll focus on the feeling of yours
Let's pretend we are anchors
Holding our ships still in the storm
I'll be your lighthouse if you are mine
Let's pretend, let's play a game
That time hasn't passed us by
That we aren't in different oceans
That your boat is still by mine
That our storms are the same storms
That emotions will save us
Let's pretend, okay?
Now open your eyes
Close your eyes
Focus on my voice
Lean forward to me
And listen closely
Let's pretend that
Neither of us are broken
That our hearts aren't bloodied
That they aren't bruised
Let us pretend our souls
Are smooth and whole
Not cracked with pieces missing
Focus on the feeling of my hand
And I'll focus on the feeling of yours
Let's pretend we are anchors
Holding our ships still in the storm
I'll be your lighthouse if you are mine
Let's pretend, let's play a game
That time hasn't passed us by
That we aren't in different oceans
That your boat is still by mine
That our storms are the same storms
That emotions will save us
Let's pretend, okay?
Now open your eyes
