‘'Make Believe’‘ tackles depression and sadness but takes a very light-hearted detour in heavy contrast to her other much darker songs.
This song was used in Boardwalk Empire.
There are times when you feel sad and blue
Something wrong and you don't know what to do
When you feel that way stop and think awhile
Just make believe and smile
Make believe, you are glad when you're sorry
Sunshine will follow your way
When things go wrong
It won't be long
Soon it'll be right again
Though your love dreams have gone
Make believe, don't let on
Smile though your heart maybe broken
Though when bad luck have departs
You'll find good luck starts
Don't grieve, just make believe
When you think your luck is bad
And you're feeling mighty sad
With all your cares and trouble far behind
Keep on smiling that's the way
And remember what I say
Perfect happiness is just a state of mind
Though your love dreams have gone
Make believe, don't let on
Smile when your heart is still broken
For when bad luck departs
You will find good luck starts
Don't grieve, just make believe
Though your love dreams have gone
Make believe, don't let on
Smile though your heart maybe broken
For when bad luck departs
You will find good luck starts
Don't grieve, just make believe
Make Believe was written by Jerome Kern & Oscar Hammerstein II.
