Why Pretend Lyrics - Gilbert Osullivan

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. 

'Cause everyone knows 

You're all alone 

So 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 

Oh everyone knows 

You're all alone 

So why pretend 

And everyone knows 

That you're on your own 

why not let it end 

Your baby's gone 

And you're all alone 

So why pretend.
