Make Believe Lyrics

Past the street signs, walking hand in hand

My thoughts, they were shifting like sand

She said, "I'm cold, can I use your coat?"

I said, "You'll find it in the letters I wrote"

Oh

It's real

But it's only make believe

Why don't you make believe?

I'd love to make believe with you

With you

"Make your eyes smile at me," she said

I think it's a line from a play that she's read

It was never something I could really control

She said, "You never did have much of a soul"

Oh

It's real

But it's only make believe

Why don't you make believe?

I'd love to make believe with you

With you

Oooh!

I swear I felt waves but the sea was like glass

I tried to take a picture but it moved too fast

She said, "I can taste the colour of your hair."

I tried to explain but my voice wasn't there

Oh

It's real

But it's only make believe

Why don't you make believe?

I'd love to make believe with you

With you

I'd like to make believe

I'd like to make believe

Why don't we get up and leave?

You flatter to deceive

I wear my heart on my sleeve

With you

With you
