Why Pretend

Oh, everyone knows
You're all alone
So why pretend?

And everyone knows
You're on your own
Why not let it end?

Your baby's gone
And you're all alone
So why pretend?

Every time
You're not at home
You say that she's with you

Isn't it time
You made it known
That she isn't with you?

She's far away
And there she will stay
Oh, why pretend?

You didn't want her
When her heart grew fonder
Oh, of you by her side

You didn't love her
So she found another
Oh, why pretend?
It's got to end

'Cos everyone knows
You're all alone
So why pretend?
Why pretend? Hit it

You didn't want her
When her heart grew fonder
Oh, you by her side
No, you didn't

You didn't love her
So she found another
Oh, why pretend?
It's got to end

'Cos everyone knows
You're all alone
So why pretend?

And everyone knows
That you're on your own
Why not let it end?
Do it

Your baby's gone
And you're all alone
Your baby's gone
And you're on your own

Your baby's gone
You're all alone
So why pretend?
Why pretend, baby?
