Somebody That I Don't

The other day I heard a song about this couple, didn't get along
The singer sang about their bed, "feign interest," soon we'll all be dead
Well I can't be the only one who won't just settle for anyone
But I wish I could appreciate the affection I can't reciprocate

And when I say I think you're kind
Your laugh is sweet and your smile
I hope you know I wouldn't try to lie
I'm just not your guy

Cause I'd rather be alone
Than pretend to love somebody that I don't

The other day I heard a song about some lovers, didn't get along
The singer sang about their bed, "feign interest," soon we'll all be dead
Quality isn't hard to find, what's hard is knowing if it feels right
And believe you me I know why the thing we all want is hardest to find

And when I say I have to go
There's nothing wrong you should know
I just don't want to waste your time or mine
I hope my honesty is fine

Cause I'd rather be alone
Than pretend to love somebody that I don't
Yes I'd rather be alone
Than pretend to love somebody that I don't
