Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I remember conversations
We were dancing up on tables
Taking pictures when we had nowhere to post
You were laughing, I was crying
We were dancing, we were dying
Sometimes I don't know how we walked away
[Verse 2]
If I'm honest, what I liked were the things we didn't know
Every morning, every night, I'd be beating down your door
Just to tell you what I'm thinking, but you already know
Screw this, I don't wanna let go
[Verse 3]
So can we pretend
That I'm twenty-two today
Dancing on the tables with you? Oh yeah
Can we pretend
That we all end up okay?
I just wanna forget with you, oh yeah
[Verse 4]
Can we pretend
That we both like the president?
Can I pretend that I really like your shoes?
Hell, yeah
Can we pretend
'Cause, honestly, reality, it bores me
Let's pretend, oh, let's make believe
Can we?
[Verse 5]
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
[Verse 6]
I remember what we wanted
What we never take for granted
How our daddy issues took us to LA
[Verse 7]
If I'm honest, what I miss is not knowing what to say
And the feeling of your lips, and it haunts me every day
When you'd tell me what you were thinking but I'd already know
Screw this, I don't wanna let go
Oh, yeah
[Verse 8]
So can we pretend
That I'm twenty-two today
Dancing on the tables with you? Oh yeah
Can we pretend
That we all end up okay?
I just wanna forget with you, oh yeah
[Verse 9]
Can we pretend
That we both like the way it is?
Hell, yeah
Can we pretend
That we like these fake-ass dudes?
Oh yeah
Can we pretend?
'Cause, honestly, reality, it bores me
Let's pretend, oh, let's make believe
Can we?
[Verse 10]
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
[Verse 11]
If I'm honest, what I liked were the things we didn't know
Every morning, every night, I'd be beating down your door
Just to tell you what I'm thinking, but you'd already know
Screw this, I don't wanna let it go
[Verse 12]
So can we pretend?
That we both like the president?
Can we pretend?
That you like my fake-ass shoes
Oh yeah
Can we pretend
'Cause, honestly, reality, it bores me
Let's pretend, oh, let's make believe
Can we?
[Verse 13]
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
Oh, can we pretend?
Can we? Let's make believe
Can we? Can we?
[Verse 14]
Can we pretend?
'Cause, honestly, reality, it bores me
Let's pretend, oh, let's make believe
Can we?
Can we pretend
