[Verse 1]
Let's pretend that you still love me
Make believe that I still love you
What a thing we had just yesterday

[Verse 2]
Love was young and sentimental
We were warm and oh so gentle
Let's pretend that we're still close that way
Just like yesterday

[Verse 3]
Even though we feel like parting
Let's pretend our love's just starting
Can't we be the way we were before?

[Verse 4]
Maybe if we keep pretending
We may have a happy ending
And find we're not pretending anymore

[Bridge]
(La, la-la, la-la, la, la, la
La, la-la, la-la, la, la, la
La, la-la, la-la, la, la, la, la)
[Verse 3]
Even though we feel like parting
Let's pretend our love's just starting
Can't we be the way we were before

[Verse 4]
Maybe if we keep pretending
We may have a happy ending
And find we're not pretending anymore
