Only make believe I love you
Only make believe that you love me
Others find peace of mind in pretending
Couldn't you
Couldn't I
Couldn't we
Make believe our lips are blending
In a phantom kiss or two or three
Might as well make believe I love you
For to tell the truth I do
Your pardon I pray
It was too much to say
The words that betray my heart
We only pretend you do not offend
In playing a lover's part
The game of just supposing
Is the sweetest game I know
Our dreams are more romantic
Than the world we see
And if the things we dream
About don't happen to be so
That's just an unimportant technicality
We could make believe I love you
We could make believe that you love me
Others find peace of mind in pretending
Couldn't you
Couldn't I
Couldn't we
Make believe our lips are blending
In a phantom kiss or two or three
Might as well make believe I love you
For to tell the truth I do
