[Verse 1] You say "we're just friends" Sip your drink Eyes on the floor Laugh too loud at nothing Like you never done that before You dodge every question Like the truth might catch your sleeve But your hand stays a little too long Every time you hug me to leave [Chorus] How long are you gonna pretend That you're not madly in love with me Holding your breath at the edge Of everything we could be I see it all over your face Every time you say you're "fine" How long are you gonna pretend ‘Til you finally cross that line [Verse 2] You call me past midnight "Just to talk " but we both know You rewind my stories Like your favorite show You flinch when I mention Someone else knowing my name You change the subject so fast But your cheeks give up the game [Chorus] How long are you gonna pretend That you're not madly in love with me Holding your breath at the edge Of everything we could be I see it all over your face Every time you say you're "fine" How long are you gonna pretend ‘Til you finally cross that line [Bridge] Maybe I’m wrong Maybe I’m right But you still dream in my T-shirt Every night (don’t you?) If I took your hand Right here Right now Would you pull away Or finally say it out loud [Chorus] How long are you gonna pretend That you're not madly in love with me Holding your breath at the edge Of everything we could be I feel it every time you stay Long after you "have to leave" How long are you gonna pretend When you’re already Already in love with me
