Pretend. Trust you are in a dream, today Nobody need know, 'tis your delight, How foolish not to make believe If make believe can change your plight? Pretend you're flying o'er the clouds Nay, o'er the orange cotton bales, The city lights are stars below Each twinkle masks a fairytale. Pretend to be explorers brave Scaling forbidden roofs that lie, The shooting stars, they know no fate Yet, wish upon one starry eyed. Pretend you're living in a song Sing out your heart, with every step, For whither music, if not to Make real our dreamy inner depths? Who is to say the truth is one, That make believe is foolish waste? Realities are subjective Your fancies are all yours to taste. Company that will indulge In all the same dreams as your own, Is by far the greatest bliss My timid mind has ever known. So won't you come pretend with me For just a while, with shining eyes, A fleeting flight of fancy, far Into imaginary skies.
