Pretend, Pretend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(What do you expect
look your life
your life is just like
like a blank sheet to fill,
turn a page over
and listen to what I say)
Pretend, pretend, pretend
what are you asking from life
the ship flows smoothy on the sea
the thirties run on the century
you read a smile
printed on somebodys story
walking on somebodys dream
just called from somebodys wish
what you want
what you want
Pretext, pretext, pretext
how many trees in your mind
a jungle that you like to cross
a way to reach yourself disguised
if its first class
call me and I will be leading
call me and I lead the way
call me and I take your hand
if you please
if you please
Pretend, pretend, pretend
what are you asking from life
the ship flows smoothy on the sea
the thirties run on the century
you read a smile
printed on somebodys story
walking on somebodys dream
lust called from somebodys wish
what you want
what you want
