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 |
|
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. |
|
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. |
|
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. |
