Lyrics:

Pull goodbye back in my mouth, put the rain back in the clouds
Burn the thought of leaving town in the ashtray
Tie the flowers back on the vine, paint the light back in your eyes
Tell your daddy he was right and I'm sorry
Some nights, I drink too much, I think about us
I scheme up and I dream up some alternate ending
Where we're still in love and it's messing me up
And I don't know if I'm good or just good at pretending
Fade the real into the fiction, swear the heart don't know the difference
Gave it to you and I didn't want it back, babe
Thought about you on your birthday, heard you laughing in the hallway
It gets better, so they all say
Some nights, I drink too much, I think about us
I scheme up and I dream up some alternate ending
Where we're still in love and it's messing me up
And I don't know if I'm good or just good at pretending
We had some alternate ending
Some nights, I lay awake and I try to fake
Being happy that you're happy now
Some nights, I almost chase the missing you away
But damn if it don't come back 'round
Some nights, I drink too much, I think about us
I scheme up and I dream up some alternate ending
Where we're still in love and it's messing me up
And I don't know if I'm good or just good at pretending
We had some alternate ending
Good at pretending (so good at pretending)
I don't know if I'm good
I hope that you're good
I've gotten pretty good at pretending
I don't know if I'm good
I hope that you're good
I've gotten pretty good at pretending
I don't know if I'm good
I hope that you're good
I've gotten pretty good at pretending
