Paolo Conte - Pretend, Pretend Lyrics

(What do you expect

look your life

your life is just like

like a blank sheet to fill,

turn a page over

and listen to what I say)



Pretend, pretend, pretend

what are you asking from life

the ship flows smoothy on the sea

the thirties run on the century

you read a smile

printed on somebodys story

walking on somebodys dream

just called from somebodys wish

what you want

what you want



Pretext, pretext, pretext

how many trees in your mind

a jungle that you like to cross

a way to reach yourself disguised

if its first class

call me and I will be leading

call me and I lead the way

call me and I take your hand

if you please

if you please



Pretend, pretend, pretend

what are you asking from life

the ship flows smoothy on the sea

the thirties run on the century

you read a smile

printed on somebodys story

walking on somebodys dream

lust called from somebodys wish

what you want

what you want
