[Verse 1]
Ladies don't play guitar
Ladies don't get down down to the sound of it
Maybe we can play pretend
Baby I can go down deep just to be what you're needing

[Verse 2]
Ladies just need your love
Don't you know we are all caught up in it
Baby I've been listening
I can be the archetype of whatever you're feeling
What you're feeling

[Chorus]
Maybe then I can try and give my love again
We pretend I can be the one that you've been dreaming

[Verse 3]
Tell me what can I give
If all my work is oblique and abstracted
Try to build a legacy
That will not complicate the future of your own progeny

[Chorus]
Maybe then I can try and give my love again
We pretend I can be the one that you've been dreaming
[Bridge]
You will but I won't
You will but I won't
You will but I won't
You will but I won't

[Chorus]
Maybe then I can try and give my love again
We pretend I can be the one that you've been dreaming
(Oh, down down to the sound of it)
In the end I decide how much my love can bend
(Oh, down down to the sound of it)
We pretend I can be the one that you've been dreaming
