You can pretend that you really hate him
You can pretend that you just don't care
You can pretend that you don't even know him
You can pretend that you've washed him out of your hair

But you can't throw love away
No matter how you may want to
You can't throw love away
No matter how you may try
You can't do it

It doesn't matter now how many times he let you down
It doesn't matter things worked out this way
It doesn't matter now that he didn't stick around
It doesn't matter all the things you didn't say

Cause you can't throw love away
No matter how you may want to
You can't throw love away
No matter how you may try

You can remember those days of summer fun
You can remember his goofy grin
You can remember how he rolled his eyes
and shook his head when he laughed
You can remember how he let you win

But you can't throw love away
Now matter how you may want to
You can't throw love away
No matter how you may try
You can't do it
