PRETEND

She was 21, black, young and pretty
She got my attention as she stepped up to me
Gave me a smile said hello as she walked by
She was the type that was smart, had her s*** altogether
We sparked a conversation and I'm glad that I met her
I haven't been myself and she came at the right time
Now the DJ's playing Nice & Slow
As grab her waist and hold her close
And she's whispering don't let me go, don't let me go
You can feel there's something in the air
The beginning of a love affair
Let me know if I can take you there, can I take you there

Please don't let this be the end
Of our love affair we've just began
There is no need to pretend
Are we more than friends
Lady
There for you through thick and thin
All you have to do is let me in
Ain't no reason to pretend
Are we more than friends

A gem in the rough
Got a real good feeling
We've spoken every weekend and her vibe is so appealing
Had a n**** sprung from the jump
And I won't lie
It feels good to know you got a good thing going
Since the first day she's got me feeling like I'm floating
Exceptional, affectional her love is so divine

Is it her confidence, her elegance
Her presence and intelligence
She's the type that you'll never resent
You won't regret it
You can feel there's something in the air
The beginning of a love affair
Let me know if I can take you there, can I take you there

Please don't let this be the end
Of our love affair we've just began
There is no need to pretend
Are we more than friends
Lady
I'm there for you through thick and thin
All you gotta is let me in
Ain't no reason to pretend
Are we more than friends
Synth

Oh
Please don't this be the end
Love affair, we've just began
There's no need to pretend
More than friends

Please don't this be the end
Love affair, we've just began
There's no need to pretend
More than friends

Please don't this be the end
Love affair, we've just began
There's no need to pretend
More than friends

Please don't this be the end
Love affair, we've just began
There's no need to pretend
More than friends
