about

Super excited to release Pretend into the world! Pretend is the first single release from Emily Daye's upcoming album.

lyrics

First time I laid eyes on you, you were sitting at that bar
You were on your first drink, your friends had gone a little too far
And I'll picture you as I pretend you walk my way
And I'll dream of you as you take my breath away

It can't hurt to imagine
It can't hurt to pretend

For the moment

And so you'll listen to that story your friend's told a million times
over and over
And I'll stare at you from afar
But you won't notice me, no you won't notice

It can't hurt to imagine
It can't hurt to pretend

For the moment

And I'll, I'll picture everything's gonna be alright
At least for tonight

It can't hurt to imagine
It can't hurt to pretend

For the moment

And I'll picture everything's gonna be alright
At least for tonight
