Let's Pretend - Song

Written 24/11/2021

Love conquers all
I can see it straight ahead
Come to my door, 
We can change the world... 
Cause in all this mess, 
Lies a hope in the dark 
We'll take this journey far 
With our torches in our hearts 

[Chorus 1]
Perhaps we'll meet a wise man 
Who knows where our paths lead 
Perhaps we're the few chosen 
Amidst all of this need 
Cause life, it's just a story 
And we know just how it ends 
With a moral and a lesson 
Like in our childhoods, let's pretend 

I once heard of a man 
From a very special birth
He had come to bring salvation 
To the people of this earth 
And they say, that he was special 
And they say, he cleansed our sins 
Yet I wonder when this salvation 
Actually begins

 (Chorus 1) 

 The real world is out there 
I can touch it if I try 
 The starved and begging bodies 
And the smoky burning sky 
And if there is an answer, 
Do you think we'd recognise 
That it is what we take for granted 
That will lead to our demise

[Chorus 2]
Perhaps there is a reason 
That so many of us stray 
Perhaps we'll be reborn 
Out of all of this decay 
Because we are the true stories 
We understand just what to do 
We must get ourselves back to the garden 
And the wholeness we once knew
