While i held you with our undry eyes
Have the years pass by, it's ok to cry
After all, in the end, just pretend
Well it's sticks and stones and broken homes
That taught us how to smile
After all, in the end, just pretend

There's a name that plays in my head like a song
All day long she's with me everyday
After all, in the end, just pretend

Everyone needs
Everyone needs
Everyone needs

If the sun can't shine, you'll be just fine
Looking to your mind, where you're free
After all, in the end, just pretend

Cause we hurt each other once before
Let's not do that again
After all, in the end, just pretend

And a voice so familiar wakes me up in the middle
She thinks i'm having a bad dream
After all, in the end, just pretend

Everyone needs
Everyone needs
Everyone needs

After all
It's the end
