Play Pretend

Maybe one day
We’ll sit in living rooms
With coffee and notebooks
Sugar out of silver spoons

Maybe one day
We’ll lie by swimming pools
Grab the keys to your sports car
Drive away the Sunday blues

Wind in hair, your own chair
And love in the air
As we say hello to our friends

Your green eyes, hand in mine
As we take our time
Roll away the day and play pretend

Let’s play pretend
I own the keys to my dolls house
Maybe I will let you in
Maybe one day
Oh, yeah, maybe one day

Maybe one day
We’ll ride down cobbled streets
It’s summer forever
Smile at everyone we see

Oh, one day
We’ll live in tennis whites
No sweat on your forehead
It’s easy living out this life

Picket fence, no past tense
It all just make sense (all just make sense)
Like the paintings on the wall

Evening light hits just right
We paint the sky
As you hold me, and we fall into pretend

Let’s play pretend
I own the keys to my dolls house
Yeah, maybe I will let you in
Maybe one day
Oh, yeah, maybe one day, oh

We wake at dawn to new bird’s songs
They change their melody everyday
(Everyday, everyday, everyday, everyday)
On our balcony we read
Tell stories of tomorrow, today (today, today)

And we’ve lined our living room
With smiling children who laugh
Through terracotta tears

We’ll sit hand in hand
Surveying all the land
The view, it never ends
You’d never know it’s
Pretend, pretend

Let’s play pretend
Let’s play pretend
I own the keys to my dolls house
Maybe I will let you in

Maybe one day
Maybe one day
Maybe one day
Oh, oh, ooh
