Lyrics Can We Pretend - Sussex Version - Bill Withers

Can we pretend?
That from now on
There is no yesterday
Paint a portrait of tomorrow
With no colours from today
There's a light that shines in your face sometimes
That takes my feelings and wraps them around your needs
But there's a shadow hiding in your heart sometimes
That makes my feelings turn back in on me
Can we pretend?
The pain is gone
And go our merry way
Paint a portrait of tomorrow
With the colours bright and gay
There's a light that shines in your face sometimes
That takes my feelings and wraps them around your needs
But there's a shadow hiding in your heart sometimes
That makes my feelings turn back in on me
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
Can we pretend?
OH!
