| I’m so sorry when I told you
|
| Those smokestacks were making clouds for the sky
|
| But if I told you the truth
|
| It would just bring so many tears
|
| So many tears to your eyes
|
| I said it that’s the way it is And the way it’s gonna be If that’s the way it is
|
| I’d rather make believe
|
| Oh remember sitting on that beach
|
| Watching all the lightning fill up the sky
|
| Well you got so scared
|
| Until I told you it was just fireworks like the fourth of July
|
| I said it that’s the way it is And the way it’s gonna be If that’s the way it is
|
| I’d rather make believe
|
| I Know one day you’ll be old enough
|
| To know my stories I told are not true
|
| But when you have your own children
|
| And they ask you questions
|
| You’ll know, you’ll know just what to do You’ll say it that’s the way it is And the way it’s gonna be If that’s the way it is
|
| I’d rather make believe
|
| Oh that’s the way it is And the way it’s gonna be If that’s the way it is
|
| I’d rather make believe |
