"Making Believe" Lyrics

George Jones & Merle Haggard
(J. Work)
Album: Merle Haggard - Hurtin'

(Merle)
Making believe that you still love me
It's leaving me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
I'm just making believe, what else can I can do?

(George)
And I'm making believe that I never lost you
All of my happy hours that I find now are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Oh, I'm making believe what else can I do?

(Merle)
I can't hold you close, darlin', when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, and you will never be mine
(Both)
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe.

Loving you and making believe...
