Shade

Take no offense to see I'm going back;
I want to sit there in the shade with you,
Together once again on Samoset
And the ocean view
Where we all pretend better now
(Yeah. we all pretend better now).

Spin me around just like a carousel
And I will understand your love;
I cannot imagine myself
Inside the things that you are dreaming of
When you try pretending better now
(Oh you try pretending better now).

Will you bring yourself along
And carry skylines in your hand?
The water touches on the shoreline -
The minutes measured out in sand,
And we all pretend better now.

Take no offense that I am going back.
I want to sit there in the shade with you.
