Verse 1
 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.

 Refrain:

 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.

 Verse 2

 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.

 Repeat Refrain
