Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard another voice this morning on the phone
But just the other day I thought you said you slept alone
And yes, I knew that laughter, okay, now I see
You wouldn't even know him if it hadn't been for me
[Verse 2]
Sometimes in the fading light
I can't help thinking back to, well, the way we were
And I start feeling guilty lying next to her
I know, and it can't be right
[Verse 3]
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
[Verse 4]
If you write again perhaps you shouldn't send it here
It's just that I don't really want your letters to appear
Oh, no, I just think she might
Forget I ever said that, I'm just being scared
[Verse 5]
I told her all about you, and I don't think she even cared
I know, but it's not all right
[Verse 6]
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
[Verse 7]
And does the thought of leaving him bring  you to tears?
I bet you never felt the same about me all those years?
Well, you know, just what it's like
[Verse 8]
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
Pretending that it's you
You still won't go away
