Lyrics Make Believe - Anne Cochran

Words and Music

The fairy tale began.
The storybook romance.
We were swept away by a flowery love.
Never dreamed that we would think
Of giving it up.
I see now just how we wished it could be.
Are we both enchanted, or is it just me?
I can make believe you love me.
Sometimes I make believe you do.
But I can't I make believe enough
To make it true.

Our once upon a time
Was somehow left behind.
It was swept away like leaves in the wind.
Nothing left for us but to pretend.
The fear I face is watching you leave.
Would I make a mistake by trying
To make you believe?
I can make believe you love me.
Sometimes I make believe you do.
But I can't make believe enough
To make it true

Hard to think I'm letting you go,
But this love, real love, I fear I know.
And I can't make believe you love me.
Sometimes I make believe you do.
Wish I could make believe enough
To make it true.
