Straight out of some story
You walked in in all your glory
I thought you were perfect for me
I was out of my mind
Looked like I was winning
It was the best love I'd ever been in
Just when we were beginning
The end, you left me behind
And I was looking forward to a happy ending
So much for pretending
I should have known better
Than to think of happy ever after
You and me together
I was out of my league
I kept my heart hidden
And now I'm wishing that I didn't
Oh, who am I kidding?
You weren't even intrigued
And I was looking forward to a happy ending
So much for pretending
It could have been beautiful
If I'd only met you
If I'd only let you know
What you meant to me
And if I could, I would
Give you a demonstration
Of how my imagination
Thought it ought to be
So much for pretending
Pretending (pretending)
Pretending (pretending)
So much for pretending
