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 

You'll find a love you can share 

One you can call all your own 

Just close your eyes, she'll be there 

You'll never be alone 

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?

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?
