What would you have me do
just turn and walk out on you
and leave you standing there
pretending i don't care
when you know as well as i
that would be nowhere
shouldn't i be with you
What would you have me say
after i walk away
would it be the end
or just a second wind
for the good old song
that we use to call pretending
shouldn't i be with you
It's not the first time
that you had me turn away
i don't know it won't be the last time
but you got to say you got to
Should we make a brand new start
or are you gonna break my heart
and leave me standing there
pretending i don't care
when you know as well as i
that would get us nowhere
will it be the end
or just a second wind
for the good old song
that we use to call pretending
shouldn't i be with you
shouldn't i be with you
