Pretender (2024 Remaster)

Lyrics

[Chorus] He's a pretender, he knows just what to say He's a pretender, yeah, you meet him every day He's a pretender, like fish that got away He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love? [Verse 1] It was so strange the way he held my hand I wanted more than just a one night stand He had a way of making me believe That he was mine and that he'd never leave [Refrain] I know that I should take my friends' advice 'Cause if it happens once, you know it happens twice If there's a chance then I know I've got to try I'll make him dance with me, I'll make him tell me why [Chorus] He's a pretender He's a pretender [Bridge] I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times And I'll believe in all your silly lies I'd like to think that I could change your mind Don't say that I am blind, I know all about your kind [Chorus] He's a pretender, you meet him every day He's a pretender, like fish that got away He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love? [Verse 2] I like the way he moved across the floor And when he danced with me I knew he wanted more But in the dark things happened much too fast I should've stopped him then, I knew it wouldn't last [Refrain] I know that I should take my friends' advice 'Cause if it happens once, you know it happens twice If there's a chance then I know I've got to try I'll make him dance with me, I'll make him tell me why [Bridge] I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times And I'll believe in all your silly lies I'd like to think that I could change your mind Don't say that I am blind You lied, you lied, you lied, you lied You lied, you lied, you lied, you lied You lied, you lied, you lied, you lied You lied, you lied I know all about your kind [Outro] He's a pretender He's a pretender He's a pretender He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love? He's a pretender, yeah, he knows just what to say He's a pretender, yeah, you meet him every day He's a pretender, like the fish that got away He's a pretender, don't know how he got that way He's a pretender He's a pretender He's a pretender, like the fish that got away He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love?
