Lyrics Making Believe - Ray Charles

(Making believe)

Making believe that you still love me
It's leaving me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still, I'll never own you
And I'm making believe it's all I can do

Because I can't hold you close (can't hold you close)
When you are not with me (you're not with me)
You're somebody's love (somebody's love)
You'll never be mine (never be mine)
Making believe, I'll spend a lifetime
Just loving you and making believe (making believe)

Making believe that I never lost you
But my happy hours I find are so few
My plans of the future, oh, will never come true
I'll keep on making believe, what else can I do?

(Can't hold you close, when you are not with me)
(You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine)
Making believe, I'll spend my lifetime
Just loving you and making believe (just making believe)
