Todd Rundgren - Pretending To Care Lyrics
Today I am your chariot horse
Tomorrow I'm your albatross
Suspended by the finest thread
No one could ever see
And when there's breathing in your ear
But just how deep those feelings go
I have no way to know
I'll never know
If I was blind
Would you still be my eyes
Or hide everything you see
Pretending to care about me
When all the time
You just can't bring yourself to
Say out loud the reasons why
You won't admit you realize
The promise you've been living by
Is just an empty shell
You'll come to bear it like a cross
Then start to tear it like frayed gauze
Though I'm ashamed to be afraid
I just can't help myself
Can't help myself

Todd Rundgren Pretending To Care Comments
Mr Rundgren, top three all the time best voices in rock. And I don't even have a clue about the other two that could be at his level
I heard this on radio recently and thought it something from BWay, Sondheim stuff. Just deeply touching.
Beautiful.
One of Todd's most beautiful songs. Heart breakingly, achingly, forsakingly gorgeous.
Todd Rundgren is King RockStar
In a word MASTERPIECE
An album a couple of decades ahead of its time; well before accapella became a "thing". A very underrated album.
A Cappella is super underrated it’s my second favourite of Todd’s after AWATS.
Ben Champion How true ... Such incredible works, I listen to them over and over again.
Way ahead of his time!
This song gives me goosebumps. Really awesome tune.
This whole album is inspired.
Comprehension of harmony?
Genius.
Lost Horizon.
Today I am your chariot horse
Tomorrow I'm your albatross
Suspended by the finest thread
No one could ever see
And when there's breathing in your ear
You put your faith in all you hear
But just how deep those feelings go
I have no way to know
I'll never know
If I was blind
Would you still be my eyes
Or hide everything you see
Pretending to care about me
When all the time
You're just wishing I'd fade away
You just can't bring yourself to
Say out loud the reasons why
You won't admit you realize
The promise you've been living by
Is just an empty shell
You'll come to bear it like a cross
Then start to tear it like frayed gauze
Though I'm ashamed to be afraid
I just can't help myself
Can't help myself
Thank you for sharing the lyrics to this beautiful song!
Truly one of the most gifted and talented musicians of all time ❤️
And not in the R&R Hall of Fame. Gosh.
