Matt MacNeil - Pretend I'm a Star Lyrics

I see the potential
But I feel like a fool
If you're so experimental
Then why make all these rules

Yeah, I'll admit that I'm nervous
Yeah, I've been that way from the start
I know it won't be on purpose
But I'm still scared that you'll break my heart

You bring the sunny days
And I'll bring my guitar
I'll write a song for you
And you pretend I'm a star

I hope this doesn't sound cheesy
I'm being as cool as I can
You don't have to say anything just to please me
Except 'play that last song again

And I shutter at the thought of the old me
The one who couldn't ever figure anything out
But I remember how it felt when you told me
That I haven't got a thing to worry about

You bring the sunny days
And I'll bring my guitar
I'll write a song for you
And you pretend I'm a star

I know the odds are against us
And people like us never last
The first time was such a disaster
But what's the use of living in the past

So let's start everything over
Let's give this whole thing one more chance
I'll promise to do everything that I can
To say 'yes' when you ask me to dance

You bring the sunny days
And I'll bring my guitar
I'll write a song for you
And you pretend I'm a star
