Pretend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Pretend you're happy when you're blue
It isn't very hard to do
And you'll find happiness without an end
Whenever you pretend
Remember anyone can dream
It's never bad as it may seem
The little things you haven't got can be a lot
If you would pretend
You'll find a love you can share
One you can call all your own
Just close your eyes, she'll be there
You'll never be alone
And when you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend
If only you pretend
Just close your eyes, she'll be there
You'll never be alone
And if you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend
So why don't you pretend
