1. Strophe
Pretend you're happy when you're blue, it isn't very hard to do,
and you will find happiness without an end if you pretend.
Remember anyone can dream and nothing's bad as it may seem.
The little things you haven't got could be a lot if you pretend.
1. Refrain
You'll find a love you can share, one you can call your own.
Just close your eyes you'll be there, you'll never be alone.
2. Strophe
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?
