I'm makin' believe that you're in my arms 
Though I know you're so far away
Making believe I'm talkin' to you
Wish you could hear what I say

And here in the gloom of my lonely room 
We're dancin' like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreaming
So till my dreams come true

I'll whisper "Good night"
Turn out the light
And kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you


(Transcribed from the Les Brown/Doris Day 
recording by Mel Priddle - March 2007)
