Sylvie (We’d Better Not Pretend)

Even if I came to you, I'd break your heart
Trying not to feel like me, I couldn't start
You're laughing at my life
You couldn't be my wife and you know
So, Sylvie, Sylvie, Sylvie, better not pretend

What about your discotheques and pretty clothes?
If you try to be like you, you'd forfeit those
Please don't get me wrong
It's not that I don't want your love
Oh but, Sylvie, Sylvie, Sylvie, better not pretend

People try to tell me
That you and I were made to fall in love
If only they were right sometimes

If our lives were different
Maybe you could be my special friend
And people'd share our love sometime

When I walk away from you, I'll say goodbye
Walking back to live my life but you won't cry
You'll listen to this song
You'll think that I'm a friend of yours
Oh but, Sylvie, Sylvie, Sylvie, better not pretend
