Pretend you're happy when you're blue It isn't very hard to do & you will find happiness without an end if you'll pretend Remember, anyone can dream & nothing's bad as it may seem The little things you haven't got could be a lot if you'll pretend Bridge: You'll find the love you can share One you can call your own Just close your eyes, you'll be there You'll never be alone & if you sing this melody You'll be pretending just like me Well, what's mine, it can be yours, my friend So why don't you pretend? (instrumental) (repeat bridge) (repeat verse 3, then repeat its last line twice)
