[Chorus] Why don't we make believe we're in love again Who said the crimson moon doesn't shine Where do people go when they're lookin' for that one of a kind Why don't we make believe that we're sorry Why must we hold it all inside Where do lovers go when they're runnin' and there's no place to hide Always remember - the day we met in the foreign rain You were content and - we went our separate ways No matter which way the wind blows now, hang on to it anyhow Don't ever say it could never be the same [Chorus] Always remember - holding hands on a summer day You were content ob das stimmt?? and - you took it all away I didn't come here to change your mind, lead you on and waste your time All alone in the evening, gettin' blue Why don't we make believe [Chorus] Why don't we make believe, why don't we make believe
