"Pretending (Cosmic Pope Jam Session)" lyrics - HIM

Love is a flame that can't be tamed
And though you're its willing prey, my darling
We are not the ones to blame

"Trust" is a word all lovers know
The glorious art of staining souls, my darling
We are not the ones to blame

The more we have, the more we want
And the more it hurts our heart, my baby
It always ends up in tears...

So keep on pretending
Our heaven's worth the waiting
Keep on pretending
It's all right
So keep on pretending
It will be the end of our craving
Keep on pretending
It's all right...

When doubts arise, the game begins
The one we will never win, my baby
It always ends up in tears

So keep on pretending
Our heaven's worth the waiting
Keep on pretending
It's all right
So keep on pretending
It will be the end of our craving
Keep on pretending
It's all right...
Oh, come on

Love is a flame that can't be tamed
And though you're its willing prey, my darling
We are not the ones to blame
