Make Believing
Words & Music by Joe Cohen
© Joe Cohen 1991

Another long and lonely weekend's coming...
Nothing much is going on.
Surrounded by old memories, that's all there is
Ever since you've been gone.

Friends of mine on the telephone line
Say, "How you doing" and I tell 'em I'm just doing fine,
But let me tell you, it's just another time
That I was lying...deceiving, just concealing...

That I've been dying and grieving...make believing...
Make believing to myself that you're still mine.
Make believing that you'll love me 'til the end of all time.
Make believing everything will be just fine.

If time heals all wounds then why am I still bleeding
After all of the time that has come and gone?
'Doesn't seem to be no rhyme or no reason...
This smile that I'm wearing is just a put on.

I'm not just handing you a line
Like you've heard before so very many times,
Well if you've heard that I don't miss you, just keep it in mind
That I was lying...deceiving, not up to revealing...

That I've been dying and grieving...make believing...
Make believing to myself that you're still mine.
Make believing that you'll love me 'til the end of all time.
Make believing everything will be just fine.

But let me tell you, it's just another time

Make believing to myself that you're still mine.
Make believing that you'll love me 'til the end of all time.
Make believing everything will be just fine.
