I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away

Making believe I'm talking to you, wish you could hear what I say

And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do

Making believe is just another way of dreaming, so till my dreams come true

I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow

Making believe it's you



I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away

Making believe I'm talkin' to you, wish you could hear what I say

And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do

Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true

I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow

Making believe it's you



And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do



Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true

I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow



Making believe it's you
