| 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? |

| 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

| 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
