Pretending

Dawn breaks the day

I crossed a frozen lake

I saw an eagle fly away

But I could feel my heart descending

I went off by myself

'Cause there was no one else

It didn't go real well

And the lonely nights were never-ending

Fool's gold, my love

Marching like a high school band down Main Street

I'm going back in time, my paper valentine

When I saw your face

And made your heart all aglow

Before I took it too slow

Well, just a slight of hand

I'm crying wolf again

I should've known right then

That you were only pretending

I heard the shushing pines, they called

I heard them whisper your name, I thought

I know I sound insane

It's all the alone time I've been spending

Fool's gold, just a slight of hand

My love, I'm crying wolf again

Parading like a high school marching band, down Main Street

I'm going back in time, my paper valentine

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Did I take it to-

Another day is done

Another setting sun

Shadows dance to flame

Across the fortress I'm defending

Another train of thought

Another world apart

Ride the iron horse I caught

Into a story never-ending

Fool's gold, just a slight of hand

My love, I'm crying wolf again

Parading like a high school marching band down Main Street

I'm going back in time, my paper valentine

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Nobody needs to know

I'm going back in time, my secret valentine

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Nobody needs to know, nobody needs to know (nobody needs to know)

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Nobody needs to know (nobody needs to know, nobody needs to know)

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Nobody needs to know, needs to know

When I saw your face and made your heart all aglow

Nobody needs to know what it is
