I make believe til I'm a different man.
These thoughts come out to find me.
I make believe until you understand,
When loneliness surrounds me.
All I'm saying,
We don't have to fade away.
All I'm saying,
We don't have to fade,
Have to fade away.
And if you try it,
You can deny it,
Watch it die and
We can start again.
I make believe I'm not a desperate man,
Foolish for your attention.
Grist for the mill until you know I am
Hard up and not to mention.
All I'm saying,
We don't have to stay the same.
All I'm saying,
We don't have to fade,
Have to fade away.
And if you try it,
You can deny it,
Watch it die and
We can start again.
