Still Pretending by Tift Merritt

I hear you comin' up the driveway
I tie a ribbon in my hair
look who's come to see me
Funny, you always end up here

But it's still pretending
And it's still wrong
And I still can't tell my heart
Why I'm still alone

Well I guess I'm supposed to lock you out
Well I guess I'm supposed to play it tough
But I see, how you look at me
Baby, it always is enough

But it's still pretending
And it's still wrong
And I still can't tell my heart
Why I'm still alone

Barefoot in the kitchen laughin'
Till you leave when I'll be cryin'
Inside the door I close behind you
Wishin' you would stay

But we're still pretending
And we're still wrong
And I still can't tell my heart
Why I'm still alone

Oh tell me why I'm still alone?
Oh why I'm still alone?
