Lyrics for Pretend

Pretend you're happy when you're blue It isn't very hard to do And you'll find happiness without an end Whenever you pretend Remember anyone can dream And nothing's bad as it may seem The little things you haven't got Could be a lot if you pretend You'll find a love you can share One you can call all your own Just close your eyes, she'll be there You'll never be alone And if you sing this melody You'll be pretending just like me The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend So why don't you pretend? And if you sing this melody You'll be pretending just like me The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend So why don't you pretend?
