I Can't Pretend Lyrics

I Can't Pretend
I think of sweet things I could tell you
But they're bad for your health
I know you're going to get to hear them
So I keep them to myself
I'm on my very best behavior
I want to keep you as a friend
So just don't get any closer
'Cause then I can't pretend
No I can't pretend
I don't want you
And I can't pretend
I don't care
So if we're just friends well hell

Maybe this friendship should end right here
What was I thinking
Have I lost my mind
You stole my heart
And made me forget
Every single one of my lines
To think the sweet things I could tell you
But they're not in the script
I know I'd only throw you off
So I button up my lip
I'm on my very best behavior
Don't want to lose you as a friend
So just don't get any closer
'Cause then I can't pretend
