When I Pretend Lyrics by Jordan Pruitt

No Ordinary Girl (Japanese Edition)

2007

[Verse 1]
Thoughts of you keep running through my head
Images I just want to forget
I look in the mirror and put on a happy face
But nobody sees it and I don't believe it
I bought into every word you said
I never thought that's something I'd regret
I look at you now and wonder who I see
I'm lost in a frenzy and it's neverending
[Chorus]
The way we used to talk all night
I still get butterflies when I go there again
Oh, I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
But only if I pretend
[Verse 2]
If I could draw the world I wanna see
I know just how I'd picture it to be
I stand here alone and know that it all was real
You say you don't need it
I know you don't mean it, and I don't believe it
[Chorus]
The way we used to talk all night
I still get butterflies when I go there again
Oh, I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
But only if I pretend
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm where I wanna be
Don't you wake me from this dream
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
When I go there again
Oh, I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
[Chorus] (2x)
The way we used to talk all night
I still get butterflies when I go there again, again
Oh, I see the way you used to smile
If only for a while
But only if I pretend
