Eric Clapton – ‘Pretending’ Music Video

February 24, 2019 By the80sruled Leave a Comment


Eric Clapton’s music video for his number one rock song from 1989, ‘Pretending’!

“Pretending” Lyrics:

How many times must we tell the tale?
How many times must we fall?
Living in lost memory
You just recalled

Working on the sound of the band
Trying to get the music right
Two go out working
Three stay home at night

That’s when she said she was pretending
Like she knew the plan
That’s when I knew she was pretending
Pretending to understand

Pretending, pretending
Pretending, pretending

Satisfied but lost in love
Situations change
You’re never who you used to think you are
How strange

[Repeat First Chorus]

[Bridge]

I get lost in alibis
Sadness can’t prevail
Everybody knows strong love
Can’t fail

Don’t be pretending about how you feel
Don’t be pretending that your love is real
Don’t be pretending about how you feel
Don’t be pretending that your love is real

[Bridge]
