Love's Game Of Let's Pretend Lyrics - Hank Snow

Your ribbon in the summer breeze entwined in curls of gold 

And the robin red brest's voice did sweetly blend 

With a little schoolmate chior as they sang oh promise me 

When I wed you in love's game of let's pretend 

The kid next door was parson and the church was make believe 

For a wedding ring a hairpin I did bend 

And while flowers along the wayside was my childhood bride's bouquet 

When we married in love's game of let's pretend 

[ steel - fiddle ] 

Little did I think that day that somewhere along life's way 

That the game of let's pretend again we'd start 

But you cheated in the game and you drew another's name 

Then the hand of fate dealt me a broken heart 

On a pillow wet with tears I'll keep dreaming through the years 

So forever let me be your closest friend 

Though each vow you cast away you were mine in childhood days 

When I wed you in love's game of let's pretend
