Gilbert O'Sullivan - Why Pretend lyrics

rate me

Oh everyone knows

You're all alone

So why pretend

And everyone knows

You're on your own

Why not let it end

Your baby's gone

And you're all alone

So why pretend.

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.
