Merle Haggard
Making Believe
[Verse 1]
Making believe that you still love me
It's leaving me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
Making believe, it's all I can do

[Chorus]
I can't hold you close, darling, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you will never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe

[Verse 2]
Making believe that I never lost you
But those happy hours I find are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Making believe that's all I can do

[Chorus]
I can't hold you close, darling, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you will never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe
