Its too hard to begin when we know it will end
And if you got a friend, better leave with him
Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
I know that I need love, but I CANT PRETEND,
I CANT PRETEND
One day the moon will set for the last time
Maybe well become part of a mountain
Weve always learned these things
You know Im not crying
But you know Im not trying to get
Its too hard to begin when we know it will end
And if you got a friend, better leave with him
Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
I know that I need love, but I CANT PRETEND,
I CANT PRETEND, I CANT PRETEND
Remember when you first touched my hand
We sparkled inside at the same time
And now it doesnt even matter
Its too hard to begin when we know it will end
And if you got a friend, better leave with him
Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
I know that I need love, but I CANT PRETEND,
I CANT PRETEND, I CANT PRETEND
I see the sky, high on a mountain
Its too hard to begin when we know it will end
I see the sky, high on a mountain
I see the sky, high on a mountain
