Lyrics for Just Imagine
I know I've found my ideal man I always knew he'd arrive Though he's a true hard to peel man He doesn't know I'm alive But I don't spend my time in, grieving I've learned the trick of make-believing So if I can't have a real man There's only one way to thrive Just imagine that he loves me dearly Just imagine that I'm here sincerely I'm pretending that he's sending Love notes ending, "I love you!" It seems that he's there as the day is closing On his knees there, I hear him proposing He's not present Still, it's pleasant Just imagining it's true It seems that he's there as the day is closing On his knees there, I hear him proposing 'Til I win you I'll continue to imagine that it's true
