Lyrics Can I Pretend - The Miracles

Can I pretend that you love me
The way I love you, I love you so
Knowin′ that I could never have you my love
Like a poor child dreams
Of love at Christmas time
Like a Mother never wanting
Her baby to whine
Hopeless wishes that don't come true
Just fade away like my dreams of you dear
Forgive me
But can I please make-believe
You′re here with me darling
It's so easy to remember that day in May
I stayed out late and we argued the whole day
You jumped in your car and sped away
You bumped the curb
And now you're gone to stay
Forgive me
But can I please make-believe
You′re here with me darling
Can I? Can I believe? ooh
Oh, I′ll bring you flowers everyday
Where you lay
Oh, God why did you take her?
Away from me
Well, God can I? Can I? Can I?
Pretend that she's here with me oh
Can I make-believe?
That she′s here with me oh
I love you so
I, I love you so.
