Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let's pretend we never broke up
Pretend we didn't do it all wrong
Let's act as if we didn't quit
And when it got hard we held on
Let's pretend you gave it your all
Pretend I didn't need more
And that we're still sitting in that countryside kitchen, red dog sleeping on the floor
[PreChorus]
Guess I still got some feelings
Honey, do you feel like dreaming?
[Chorus]
Of that first summer night
In the back of your truck
Kissing in the moonlight
Stars above
Dancing in a field with the radio on
The moment we found our favorite song
Burning like a fire that would never go out
Heartache wasn't something we were thinking about
That forever kind of feeling that we found back then
Was love, it wasn't pretend
[Verse 2]
Let's pretend you opened up
Pretend I didn't shut down
'Cause I can't pretend that it don't hurt, and that I don't miss you now
[Chorus]
And that first summer night
In the back of your truck
Kissing in the moonlight
Stars above
Dancing in a field with the radio on
The moment we found our favorite song
Burning like a fire that would never go out
Heartache wasn't something we were thinking about
That forever kind of feeling that we found back then
Was love, it wasn't pretend
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
[Bridge]
Do you feel like playing along?
Like, going back before you were gone
[Chorus]
To that first summer night
In the back of your truck
Kissing in the moonlight
Stars above
Dancing in a field with the radio on
The moment we found our favorite song
Burning like a fire that would never go out
Heartache wasn't something we were thinking about
That forever kind of feeling that we found back then
Was love, it wasn't pretend
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh
It was love
It was love, it was love back then
It was love, it was love back then
It was love, it was love back then
It was love
It was love, it was love back then
It was love, it was love back then
It was love, it was love back then
It was love
