Make Believe (1927)

From the musical Show Boat. Verse: 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 (3 times): 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 Ending: 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 ---------------------------------------------- words by Oscar Hammerstein II music by Jerome Kern published by T.
