Little Mix – Pretend It's OK lyrics
Jade

What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's ok
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's ok

Perrie

I remember the day when we were out all night

Jade

I wish that I can get the day back and tell you it's alright

Leigh-Anne

Cause we all do the same thing, we just don't realize

Jade

That we're living on borrowed time

[All]
What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's ok
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's ok

I see the light that I'm chasing
A memory but it's fading
When it's gone I'll be waiting
Knowing it's too late (Knowing it's too late)
Chose the road that
I'm walking
Now it's your soul that I'm caught in
And you're not hearing when I'm calling
Calling you name

One breath, one step, one life, one heart
Two words two eyes
New beginning, new start
Too deep, too narrow, to short, too bright
I'm better with you here by my side

What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's ok
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's ok

Nothing here, no one talking, knowing it's too late
But sometimes it can get so hard pretending it's ok
Nothing here, no one talking, nothings gonna change
But sometimes it can get so hard pretending it's ok

What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's ok
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's ok

What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's ok
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's ok

Oh yeah
What would you do? What would you say?
Pretending it's ok
What would you do? What would you say?

    I think it's about someone who lost someone they loved and they talked in their mind to that person asking what he/she would do if (s)he was in their place.

    By asking

    What would you do?
    What would you say?
    How does it feel?

    And that the person in their mind says: 'Pretend it's OK'

    Verse 1:
    They have a nice memory of the person
    'I remember the day when we were out all night' 'I wish I can get the day back and tell you it's alright'

    They person realizes because of the death of her/his loved one that live is short
    'we just don't realize that we're living on borrowed time'

    Verse 2:
    The nice memory starts fading away

    I see the light that I'm chasing' *The light is the memory, he/she is chasing the memory, the memory keeps going into her/his mind because they don't want the memory to go away but it still does

    'A memory but it's fading, when it's gone I'll be waiting' Waiting for the memory to come back
    'Knowing it's too late' too late for the memory to come back


    He/she is in a depression because of the death of his/her loved one,
    'You chose the road that I'm walking' 'now it's your soul that I'm caught in'

    I'm gonna skip the 'one breath, one step,' and so on part...

    Then they are hopeless for the depression to go away,
    'Nothing here, no one talking' 'nothing's gonna change'

    And because he/she is depressed it's hard to pretend it's OK 'But sometimes it can get hard pretending it's OK'

    I'm sorry if my english isn't completely correct, I'm dutch and I am only twelve writing this, I hope this helped you Xx
