Lyrics

Finn and Rachel:
Face to face and heart to heart
We're so close yet so far apart
I close my eyes I look away
That's just because I'm not OK

Rachel:
But I hold on

Finn and Rachel:
I stay strong
Wondering if we still belong

Will we ever say the words we're feeling?
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
Will we ever have a happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
We will always, always, always be pretending?

How long do I fantasize?
Make believe that it’s still alive
Imagine that I am good enough
And we can choose the ones we love

Finn:
But I hold on

Finn and Rachel:
I stay strong
Wondering if we still belong

Will we ever say the words we're feeling?
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
Will we ever have a happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
Will we always, always, always be

Keeping secrets safe
Every move we make
Seems like no one's letting go
And it’s such a shame
'Cause if you feel the same
How am I supposed to know?

Finn, Rachel, and New Directions:
Will we ever say the words we're feeling?
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
(Rachel: Tear down all the walls)
Will we ever have a happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
(Finn: Only be pretending)

New Directions with Finn and Rachel ad-libbing:
Will we always, always, always be pretending?
Will we always, always, always be pretending?
Will we always, always, always be pretending?
