pretend (2003)

Come over

Would you read to me tonight

I know I'm too old but I don't mind

Please don't turn out the light

Tuck me in

And whisper secrets to me

Don't leave until I am fast asleep

You don't have to leave

Baby I don't care what you say to me

Can we just pretend it's 2003

And we're home from school and nothing's changed

And we've both got leads in the eighth-grade play

Come over

Pick me up

And I won't care where we go

Play me music that I don't know

Until my heart overflows

Traffic lights

Blinking around the bend

In the darkness with my best friend

Please don't let this end

Listen I don't care what is happening

Can we just pretend it's 2013

And we're up too late writing every night

And our biggest dream is to have this life

Come over

Come over
