On a quiet summer day long ago and far away
Two tiny tots their game of play did end
As they gazed into the sky where the lazy clouds go by
The little girl said let's just play pretend.
Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky
Let's pretend that we're up there just you and I
Let's pretend that no one knew where to find us in the blue
Let's pretend that dreams come true as years go by.
Now today as long years glide do they wander side by side
And just a trail into that dreamland wind
Do they still recall the day when she turned to him to say
Darling take my hand and let's pretend.
Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky
Let's pretend that we're up there just you and I
Let's pretend that no one knew where to find us in the blue
Let's pretend that dreams come true as years go by...
