Back when we were simple young
 
 Always chasing for the Sun
 
 We were the two best of buds
 
 Then adolescence came by my way
 
 And love was rushing right through my veins
 
 Every time I saw her
 
  
  And I fell down
 
 Wasting my thoughts
 
 On what ifs and how's
 
 Why now?
  
 
 She don't make this thing easy
 
 My hopes are filled to the brim
 
 But I know she’ll never see me
 
 As anything more than a friend
 
 So I’ll just keep playing pretend
  
 
 Oh, woah, oh
  
 
 I know I'm usually not one to brag
 
 But I'm trynna fix what I lack
 
 But she don't notice at all
 
 I wanna be something morе than friends
 
 The pair with that happy end
 
 But maybе this thing will all blow
  
 
 So I'm falling down
 
 Wasting my thoughts
 
 On what ifs and how's
 
 What now?
  
 
 She don't make this thing easy
 
 My hopes are filled to the brim
 
 But I know she’ll never see me
 
 As anything more than a friend
 
 So I’ll just keep playing pretend
  
 
 Oh, oh, woah
 
 Hmm, no, oh, woah
  
 
 This thing was never easy
 
 My hopes spilled over the brim
 
 All I can say now is sorry
 
 For bringing us to an end
 
 Oh, I should've kept playing pretend
