Can't Pretend

When will my broken heart mend? I'm dying inside. But I can't pretend. We swore for life as husband and wife. Now is when it ends. that story's a lie. Your much more than friends. I won't let you hurt me again. You took my all now I take the fall. O, what a fool I've been. tears fill my eyes. no compromise. And I can't pretend. When will my broken heart mend?
