I hear you coming up the driveway

I tie a ribbon in my hair

Well, look who's come to see me

Funny, you always end up here



But it's still pretending

And it's still wrong

And I still can't tell my heart

Why I'm still alone



I guess I'm supposed to lock you out

I guess I'm supposed to play it tough

But I see how you look at me --

Baby, it always is enough



But it's still pretending

And it's still wrong

And I still can't tell my heart

Why I'm still alone



Barefoot in the kitchen laughing

Till you leave, when I'll be crying

Inside the door I close behind you

Wishing you would stay



But we're still pretending

And we're still wrong

And I still can't tell my heart

Why I'm still alone
