Pretend
When you were young did you play pretend?
Did you talk and tell your secrets to your pretend
Friend?
Did you pretend you were famous just like a film start?
Did you pretend you were a model or drove a racing
Car?
Did you pretend you were older with a husband or wife?
Did you pretend you were not you and had a different
Life?
But now you are older and your pretending is at an end
But I don't care how old you are it won't hurt to pretend.
