Ruth Moody We Could Pretend Lyrics

We could pretend that it's nothing Hide from this sufferin' We could do just enough and maybe we will We could face the other way Wait for another day Find new ways not to say it Do you think we will We could bottle it inside Keep the lid on good and tight But at some point in the night It's gonna start to spill What do we become If we hide and if we run Shadows on the sun Shadows on the sun Love's under the gun Love's under the gun Shadows on the sun Shadows on everyone Shadows on everyone Ruth Moody © 2010 We could make ourselves immune Play it safe and resume Singing ourselves the same old tune I wonder if we will We could choose not to use our eyes Lose ourselves in our disguise Know but pretend otherwise And wonder still What do we become If we hide and if we run Shadows on the sun Shadows on everyone Shadows on everyone We could wait and see if it'll pass Never tell and never ask Keep on hoping it won't last When we know it will We could hide in the night Never take flight Like a sparrow perching tight On the window sill We could try and deny it Keep on trying to fight it Hold the match and never light it Never feel the thrill
