Pretending to Sleep Lyrics – Wise John

Pretending to Sleep Lyrics by Wise John

I like what you do
With the lights turned way down low
I heard you call out my name
What’s running through your mind

As I lay beside you trying to decide if I love you
Or if I just love the game?
I would like to say that I’m falling in love
I do know for sure that I want you

Our story seems destined for the silver screen
But girl I wonder bout what’s in your dreams
If you’re like me
If after all this life has taught you

You’re suspicious of the meant-to-be
It’s just that I can’t help but hope
I’m not the only one pretending to sleep
I like how you laugh

Let your smile’s departure leave an afterimage
Of the jokes you don’t tell–
The thoughts you don’t say
But when your mystery fades

And the smile no longer blinds
Will the woman who’s behind it be my home
Or just a stop on the way?
I would like to say that I’m falling in love

I do know for sure that I want you
Our story seems destined for the silver screen
But girl I wonder bout what’s in your dreams
If you’re like me

If after all this life has taught you
You’re suspicious of the meant-to-be
It’s just that I can’t help but hope
I’m not the only one who’s playing for keeps

And I can’t help but hope
I’m not the only one pretending to sleep
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
