Baby, when I make love, I make believe it's you-
But darlin' when he kisses me I know it isn't true
It's funny how it hangs on after all this time apart
I've got ahold of my soul but you still have my heart
When you left, I made a vow that I would love no one but you
And even now, I still make believe - I make believe it's you-
Baby, when the night comes I wonder where you are
I guess you're somewhere in this universe, falling like a star
And I don't want to see you just to burst back into flame
But my heart starts to tremble if they mention your name
When you left, I made a vow that I would love no one but you
And even now, I still make believe - I make believe it's you-
I'm not feeling sorry for myself and I'm not really feeling blue
I just feel a little lonesome, baby, and I wish I was with you
But life only moves forward and I cannot turn back the hands of time
Ah, but I would if I could, back to when you were mine
Men come and go, you know they all do their best, I guess-
But even so I can't forget you like all the rest
And I suspect that I should learn to sleep alone
But I don't like to be with me - (I don't like what I see)
So baby, when I make love, I make believe it's you-
