1964

Let’s play pretend, we’ll dress up in the clothes they wore
and everyone will talk about us
Let’s see what lengths we’ll go to justify this thing
that everyone will write about
I will love you like it’s 1964
Let’s just pretend we never got divorced, my dear
and everyone’s together now
Let’s say the children weren’t used as messengers
for counter-threats from lawyers
And I will love you like it’s 1984
And everyone forgot it ended bad
And everyone forgot they were so Sad About Us
I will love you like it’s 1984
Let’s play pretend, we’ll dress up in the clothes they wore
and everyone will talk about us
Let’s see what lengths we’ll go to justify this thing
that everyone will write about
I will love you like it’s 1964
