Make Believe

Toto · Steel Box Collection: Greatest Hits [2009]

Why don't we make believe we're in love again

Who said the crimson moon doesn't shine

Where do people go when they're lookin' for that one of a kind



Why don't we make believe that we're sorry

Why must we hold it all inside

Where do lovers go when they're runnin' and there's no place to hide



Always remember - the day we met in the foreign rain

You were content and - we went our seperate ways

No matter which way the wind blows now, hang on to it anyhow

Don't ever say it could never be the same



Chorus



Always remember - holding hands on a summer day

You were content ob das stimmt?? and - you took it all away

I didn't come here to change your mind, lead you on and waste your time

All alone in the evening, gettin' blue



Why don't we make believe



(Instrumental break)



Chorus



Why don't we make believe, why don't we make believe
