A World Of Pretend

A moon lit night Stars as far as the eye could see Sweet evening coolness Gentle thoughts of thee Love from a distance A pure heart and a tender soul You were real, love was make believe A hope to guide along the rocky path, I was to face You were the place that I could hide and forget all cares Laughter and delight sang in your voice Happiness and joy were born in my soul A world of pretend Making believe it could be My fairy tale love from across the sea Knowing you helped me to believe If just for a season You became the reason I could dream again Time a distance brought reality Then one night against a crescent moon I tied a crimson red ribbon to my dreams So high above did they fly Floating to the heavens and beyond Up, up and away To the land were fairy tales never end
