Roger Whittaker - Make Believe (from "Show Boat") Lyrics

Lyrics Make Believe (from "Show Boat") - Roger Whittaker



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
'Twas 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.
Though the cold and brutal fact is
You and I have never met,
We need not mind convention's P′s and Q's
If we put our thoughts in practice
We can banish all regret
Imagining most anything we choose.
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
