Bill Withers Can We Pretend song lyrics

Can We Pretend

Can we pretend

That from now on

There is no yesterday

Paint a portrait of tomorrow

With no colors from today

Chorus:

There's a light that shine in your face sometimes

That takes my feeling wraps them around your need

But there's shadow hiding in your heart sometimes

That makes my feelings turn back in on me

Can we pretend

The pain is gone

And go our merry way

Paint a portrait of tomorrow

With the colors bright and gay

Repeat Chorus
