Lets Pretend
Judy Collins
Judy Collins - Let’s Pretend CAPO: 1st Fret [Verse 1] The party was over it was nearly a quarter to two Hearing your voice was the last thing I thought I would do Seeing your face brought the pain back again just like new Now I’m right back where I was I am lost without you___ [Verse 2] I stood in a daze as you put your hand gently in mine Once again lost in the look of your love so divine I know you don’t mean it but tell me you love me again I know we are over but wrap me in lies that don’t end [Chorus] I’ll close my eyes so you won’t see the tears Let’s make the best of those bittersweet years Let’s pretend we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend our romance didn’t end___ I’ll play my part I won’t ask you for more Won’t pull you back when you walk out the door Just let me love you for one hour more Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again____ [Verse 3] I know that I will go home without you tonight I know there’s nothing that I could do now to make it right Still I could dream that you never had walked out my door Still I could dream all my life if you kiss me once more [Pre-Chorus] I’ll close my eyes so you won’t see the tears Let’s make the best of those bittersweet years Let’s pretend we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend our romance didn’t end___ I’ll play my part I won’t ask you for more Won’t pull you back when you walk out the door Just let me love you for one hour more Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again____ [Bridge] Everyone’s left for the night the glasses are empty No one will see us I know No one will know that I can’t let you go [Verse 4] I’ve got to learn to let go and you must teach me how I love your arms wrapped around me like this even now Maybe if you give me just one more kiss I’ll learn it’s something I really don’t miss [Chorus] (fade to end) I’ll close my eyes so you won’t see the tears Let’s make the best of those bittersweet years Let’s pretend we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend our romance didn’t end___ I’ll slip away in the night without you While I’ll have something to comfort me too Just for old times kiss me once before the night ends Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again__ Let’s pretend__ we are lovers again__
