Make Believe Lyrics

Make Believe - Howard Keel/Kathryn Grayson

Written by:Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein II

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

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

 

We could 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
