thelma houston & jerry butler - (play the game of) let's pretend lyrics

[vocals: jerry butler, thelma houston, both, (backing vocals)]

[intro]
let’s play the game of “let’s pretend”
let’s fool each other once again
let’s make believe this story has a happy end
let’s pretend, and play this game again

[verse 1]
oh, it seems to me that we’ve been spinning
some tangled webs of fantasy
and all the lies we said in the beginning
somehow, we made them poetry
but now those words, they just won’t rhyme
within your heart or mine

[chorus]
let’s play thе game of “let’s pretеnd”
let’s fool each other once again
let’s make believe this story has a happy end
let’s pretend, and play this game again

[verse 2]
when i was young, i had a bureau
all full of rags, mm, and shiny things
i could put them on, and in my mirror
i’d become a princess or a queen
and if lies can do the same
make something beautiful from something plain
[chorus]
oh, baby…
let’s play the game of “let’s pretend” (come on, baby)
let’s fool each other once again
let’s make believe this story has a happy end
let’s pretend, and play this game again

[outro]
let’s play the game of “let’s pretend”
(let’s play, let’s play, let’s play)
let’s fool each other once again (well, baby)
(let’s make believe this story has a happy end)
let’s make believe, that this story has a real, beautiful end
oh, my friend, yeah… let’s play this game again
(let’s pretend…)

let’s play the game of “let’s pretend”, baby
ooh baby, why don’t we
let’s fool each other once again
(just once again) let’s make some magic, baby
(let’s play…)
