[Lyric] Pretend (Girl Time)

[Verse 1]
Yeah, what I should have said I wanted outright
Pretended that I couldn't feel your touch the other night
Hurt, something about me wanted it to work
Feels like the beginning, though I guess we might
Have just skipped across the pages, landed on the other side
Like Julian, thinking "What ever happened?"
Wrinkled jersey knits, I'm tired

[Chorus]
Feels like I can't sleep without her
Guess I got what I deserved
I guess it's gonna only get worse, keep getting hurt
When will I learn?

[Post-Chorus]
You were gonna help me out, you were gonna come around
And you were gonna fix me
Only in my dreams
You were gonna help me out, things were gonna turn around
And then I'd be happy
Only in my dreams, I was 23
[Verse 2]
What I should've said I wanted that night
The sky was too dark, the timing wasn't right
And hurt, something I'm so good at doing with words
Feels like I am swimming, though I guess we might
Have just been pulled under the water, come up at high tide
And rewind, something we used to do like tapes
But now we don't make time

[Chorus]
Feels like I can't sleep without her
Guess I got what I deserved
I guess it's gonna only get worse, keep getting hurt
When will I learn?

[Post-Chorus]
You were gonna help me out, you were gonna come around
And you were gonna fix me
Only in my dreams
You were gonna help me out, things were gonna turn around
And then I'd be happy
Only in my dreams, I was 23
