i'll make believe it's you

i can't understand

how the touch of her hand

on my cheek leaves me feeling

so weak in the knees and blue

she pulls her hair back

the same way i've seen you do

i've had enough

my recovery's tough

and i'm not out here looking

to start up with someone new

so in the end just before i surrender

i'll make believe that she's you

beautiful faces

i've seen in these places

could make your heart heavy and sad

with a drink or two

i don't need that yet

i've got a sea of regret

to go through

she sits here waiting

while i'm still debating

there's a cold night ahead we'd be

helping each other through

so in the end just before i surrender

i'll make believe that she's you

i'll make believe that i'm

kissing the lips that are gone

truth is i'm having

trouble just carrying on

i'll make believe that i'm

kissing the lips that are gone

truth is i'm having

trouble just carrying on

she sits here waiting

while i'm still debating

there's a cold night ahead we'd be

helping each other through

so in the end just before i surrender

i'll make believe that she's you

and so in the end just before i surrender

i'll make believe that she's you
