Blue Rodeo - Tired Of Pretending Lyrics






You have never tried
To conceal or deny
That this love is my ruin
My peril and trial
All of the promises were nothing but lies
But now that you're here
Why don't you stay for a while

Most of my friends
Fell under your spell
Some fell into heaven
But most fell back in to hell
The beauty forgotten
Like the snow-covered crops in the field
Where the wind knows no mercy
And she howls and she reels

But I'm tired of pretending
Yes I'm tired of pretending
That I still care
I still care

And the smoke curls like a river
To some forgotten land
Floating abandoned the mystery concealed
Like the moonlit shadows
On a snow-covered field
Where the wind knows no mercy
And she howls
And she reels

But I'm tired of pretending
Yes I'm tired of pretending
That I still care
I still care

  12. g.... ....

    It is not possible to pigeon-hole Blue Rodeo music into just one category. They speak musically from their heart and are guided by their spirit. When you write music of your life, it changes as does the stages of your life

  13. B.... ....

  19. E.... R....

    Keelor is so much like my son.. in the shadow of the guy who gets all the girls.. but he is talented all the same.. it's nice to see some of his stuff come to the foreground for a change

  20. d.... ....

    Where is the picture from?

  21. d.... ....

  24. F.... ....

    Aye. *hangs head in shame*

  25. C.... W....

    Whoops, that's not right either. It's "Are You Ready" that he does on both Seven Songs and, in a rockier version, with Blue Rodeo. But, at any rate, an extraordinary song.

  26. s.... ....

    ... " tired of pretending ", love it... so much emotion behind his words.

  27. b.... ....

    I love this song. and I love the one after this on the album.

  28. F.... ....

    Aye. Well you ARE still half right. He does have a song by the same title on his album Seven Songs For Jim. Mass confusion!

  29. r.... ....

    love blue rodeo no other meaning

  30. F.... ....

    What do you mean by that?

  31. r.... ....
