I Do

I’ll pretend that I don’t miss the days
When my laugh mingled with yours
At some long forgotten joke

(But I do)

I’ll pretend that every time our eyes meet
I don’t flush or look away
And I'm don't hide the pain

(But I do)

I’ll pretend that I don’t wish
You’re arms would shield me forever
And we would stay close always

(But I do)

I’ll pretend that I don’t feel a thing
When you pass me in the hall
And blind yourself towards me

(But I do)

You pretend you don’t know I exist
And that the words we once shared
Were void of meaning

(But you do)

You’re an impossible dream,
A desire not meant to be fulfilled
So I’ll pretend I don’t love you

(But I do)
