Lyric

Don't you pretend that you don't need a little more from me

You're acting like it's nothing

We both know it's something

Even in the dark, anyone can see

So don't you pretend that you're not wishing I was next to you

Hot and cold as ever

Want me but you never let your guard down

And I need some proof

You make me want you

But you don't know where this ends

Baby, I wanna love you

But I can't take the suspense

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend, oh yeah

Try to deny and be cool as you walk away from me

Steady as you go, but trembling in your voice shows

There's a part of you slowly dying

I'm not gonna wait and just play victim to your vanities

I don't have the time, babe, tell me that you're mine, babe

Why you keeping your feelings from me?

You make me want you

But you don't know where this ends

Baby, I wanna love you

But I can't take the suspense

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend, oh yeah

Don't you run and hide, let's find out tonight

I got a feeling that you wanna fall

Tell me, yes or no, I can't take no more

I want the real thing or nothing at all

I just wanna see, who you trying to be, yeah

I said don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)

(Who you trying to be)

Don't you pretend

(I just wanna see who's in front of me)
