Can’t Pretend - Live from Spotify (SXSW)

[Verse 1]
Love, I have wounds
Only you can mend, you can mend, oh, oh, oh
I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh, oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Feel, my skin is rough
But it can be cleansed, it can be cleansed, oh, oh, oh
And my arms are tough
But they can be bent, love, they can be bent

[Pre-Chorus]
And I wanna fight, but I can't contend

[Chorus]
I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (Now)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh!

[Bridge]
Oh, feel our bodies grow
And our souls they blend, yeah
Oh, love, I hope you know
How much my heart depends, yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh
I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, feel our bodies grow
And our souls they blend, yeah
Oh, love, I hope you know
How much my heart depends, yeah

[Outro]
I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh, oh
I guess that's love
I can't pretend, I can't pretend, oh, oh, oh

[Outro]
Aye, cheers!
So I'm Tom Odell and this is, huh... my band
Which are doing a very good job today, we
We're going to England after this
Huh... back to London, we've been here for roughly 14 hours in Texas
Huh... we've had a great time!
Huh... so thank you for listening!
Probably no, actually, huh!
