Pretend Lyrics by Austin Eldred

2017

[Verse 1: Austin Eldred]
I know you been gettin' what you want, baby, stop lyin'
Have another drink from the bar, baby, I'm buyin'
King of the feelin' 'til we both faded or you gon' keep us both waitin'
I know you been gettin' what you want, baby
You don't gotta fake it, baby, I know you want more
I'ma give you somethin' you ain't never had before, yeah
Quit actin' like you're satisfied

[Chorus: Austin Eldred]
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Love gives you somethin' you're gonna feel, you're gonna feel
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Life's too short to fake it, ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more

[Verse 2: Eric Bellinger]
(Eazy)
First I'ma look you in your eyes and I'ma kiss you on your forehead, yeah
When I'm done, you won't wanna go nowhere, no
I'ma work my way down, down, down
Then I'ma move my tongue around, round, round
After I'm finished with your lips
You know I'ma kiss that bottom set 'tween your hips
That's how it goes
When you dealin' with a real R&B singer
If you're lucky, tomorrow we'll do it again
I know that you want it, ain't gotta pretend

[Chorus: Austin Eldred & Eric Bellinger]
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Love gives you somethin' you're gonna feel, you're gonna feel
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Life's too short to fake it, ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more

Ain't gotta pretend no more
Love gives you somethin' you're gonna feel, you're gonna feel
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Love gives you somethin' you're gonna feel, you're gonna feel
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Life's too short to fake it, ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more
Ain't gotta pretend no more
