All I Can Do Is Pretend

Tonight I set two places at the table
And I ask you how your day has been
But you’re not really there, I’m just talking to a chair
And all I can do is just pretend.

Chorus:
Just pretending that you still really love me
Just pretending that you’ll come back again
I want to look into your eyes, have you right here by my side
But all I can do is just pretend.

My friends are all worried about me
And I know they will never understand
That I can’t let you go, ‘cause I still love you so
But all I can do is just pretend

Chorus

Waitin’ in the rain down at the depot
For that Five O’clock Special comin’ in
There’s no train here on these tracks, ‘cause you’re never comin’ back
So all I can do is pretend

Chorus
