Pretender - 20-Bit Digital Mastering from the Original Master Tapes: 1998

Pretender
Ooh, pretender

I wake myself up every time
I daydream of love for you and me
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
I should remember you're just a pretender of love

(Nothing but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love) Ooh, pretender
(No one but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretends to be in love)

Girl, you can't trust the imagination
It never tells you who's for real
You don't give love, you're just a lender
I should remember that you're just a pretender of love

(Nothing but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love)

Oh, but I wanted (to be your)
I wanted to be (to be your lover)
To be what you want, everything you could need
Oh, yeah (every)
You were everything (I could dream of)
I ever could dream of

But I really (should be your)
Really should be (should be your lover)
Keeping your, feeling your, having your love
Oh, pretender (pretender)
Pretender, give me your love
Ooh, yeah

Pretender
Why can't you be for real?
Aw, baby
Pretender
Why won't you believe in what you feel?

Well, I thought you were mine, baby, all the time
And I know that you dig what I'm sayin'
It's a player's dream just to have a fool
But sweet baby, I ain't playin'
It's funky nothin's, baby

(Nothing but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love) Ooh, pretender
(No one but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to in love) Ooh, pretender

(Nothing but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love) Ooh, pretender
(No one but a pretender) Pretender
(Pretending to in love) Oh, pretender
(Nothing but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love) Ooh, pretender
(No one but a pretender) Can't love no one
(Pretending to be in love)
