Pretenders Lyrics - Singles - The Swifts

We took our differences and threw them in the ocean, 

So they would drift away to future generations. 

We took our trouble, 

We fought the struggle. 

And maybe someday you wouldnt mind to try, 

The things we promised we would leave behind. 

Cause after all this time, 

Havent you realized? 

We were pretenders pretending our lies, 

We were pretenders pretending our time, 

We were pretenders pretending our life, 

We were pretenders pretending to love. 

Were settling for less than what we could have.
