On a quiet summer day long ago and far away

Two tiny tots their game of play did end

As they gazed into the sky

Where the lazy clouds go by

The little girl said let's just play pretend

Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky

Let's pretend that we're up there just you and I

Let's pretend that no one knew

Where to find us in the blue

Let's pretend that dreams come true as years go by

Now today as long years glide

Do they wander side by side

And do their dreams into the future wind

Do they still recall the day when she turned to him to say

Darling take my hand and let's pretend

Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky

Let's pretend that we're up there just you and I

Let's pretend that no one knew

Where to find us in the blue

Darling take my hand and let's pretend
