Lyrics
People see us everywhereThey think you really careBut myself, I can’t deceiveI know it’s only make believe
My one and only prayerIs that some day you’ll careMy hopes, my dreams come trueMy one and only you
No one will ever knowHow much I love you soMy only prayer will beSome day you’ll care for me
But it’s only make believe
My hopes, my dreams come trueMy life, I’d give for youMy heart, a wedding ring
My all, my everything
My heart I can’t controlYou rule my very soulMy only prayer will be
Some day you’ll care for meBut it’s only make believe
My one and only prayerIs that some day you’ll care
My hopes, my dreams come trueMy one and only you
No one will ever knowHow much I love you so
My prayer, my hopes, my schemesYou are my every thingBut it’s only make believe (make believe)
