Jo.e:
It's sad to say no
Hard to admit I can't go
Any further
But to be with you
Not as your lover
When I look in your eyes
I can see butterflies
Although you try to deny
Know what you're thinking
I'm not taking you for granted
Just pretending I don't see it
Don't wanna end what we've started
I wanna pull you closer
But push you farther
Should I admit to what I feel
Or act as if there's nothing real
Should we stay the same or be true
And take the blame
But I'd rather keep what's on my mind
To not lose you by my side
I'll try my best to pretend
I'll try my best to pretend
To stay and be your best friend
Hey girl don't think too much
But what if this is for us
I'm just saying, let's enjoy this ride
We don't need to rush
Cheer up, it's me, we'll be fine
I won't take much of your time
I'll stay right here 'til you change your mind
I know what you're thinking
I'm not taking you for granted
I hope I'm just mistaken
Don't wanna end what we've started
Jo.e & MJ:
I wanna pull you closer
But push you farther
Should I admit to what I feel
Or act as if there's nothing real
Should we stay the same or be true
And take the blame
But I'd rather keep what's on my mind
To not lose you by my side
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
To stay and be your best friend
Jo.e:
Don't wanna hurt you
'Cause I know you don't deserve to
All I can do is to be with you
But you may get the wrong idea
I just want to protect you
Give you all of the things you deserve too
Coz your pretty smile makes
Everything worthwhile (it's more than enough)
I wanna pull you closer
But push you farther
Should I admit to what I feel
Or act as if there's nothing real
Should we stay the same or be true
And take the blame
But I'd rather keep what's on my mind
To not lose you by my side
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
I'll try my best to pretend (I'll try my best to pretend)
So this won't end
