let's pretend

i can't sleep nights

wishing you were here beside me

can't help feeling

that's the way it ought to be

you know we could run away

but i couldn't bear

to hear the things they'd say

oh no

baby

let's pretend that tonight we'll live forever

if we close our eyes and believe it might come true

baby

let's pretend we could always be together

but for now just let me spend the night with you

somehow

someday

things are gonna be so different

don't cry

some way

i promise it'll be all right

so now that we're all alone

i couldn't bear to leave or take you home

oh no

baby

let's pretend that tonight we'll live forever

if we close our eyes and believe it might come true

baby

let's pretend we could always be together

but for now just let me spend the night with you

somehow

someday

things are gonna be so different

don't cry

some way

i promise it'll be all right

so now that we're all alone

i couldn't bear to leave or take you home

oh no

so take me now

my love can't wait

we're almost there now darling

darling

hold me

hold me

hold me

baby

let's pretend that tonight we'll live forever

if we close our eyes and believe it might come true

baby

let's pretend we could always be together

but for now just let me spend the night with you

somehow

someday

things are gonna be so different

don't cry

some way

i promise it'll be all right

so now that we're all alone

i couldn't bear to leave or take you home

oh no
