Let's Pretend

by Hank Snow

on The Old And Great Songs (1964), The Singing Ranger Vol.3 (1988), Together Again (1967)

On a quiet summer day long ago and far away
Two tiny tots their game of play did end,
As they gazed into the sky where the lazy clouds go by,
The little girl said let's just play pretend.

[Chorus]
Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky,
And let's pretend that we?re up there just you and I,
Let's pretend that no one knew where to find us in the blue,
Let's pretend our dreams come true as years go by.

Now today as long years fly
Do they wander side by side,
And do their dreams into the future wind,
Do they still recall the day when she turned to him to say,
Darling take my hand and let's pretend.

[Chorus]
Let's pretend those clouds are islands in the sky,
And let's pretend that we're up there just you and I,
Let's pretend that no one knew where to find us in the blue,
Let's pretend our dreams come true as years go by.

This was the song I was looking for
  anyone know it?....
on a quiet summer day,
long ago and far away
 a little girl is kneeling by a grave
as I stood there by her side
the tears alone she cried
 these words I heard wetr yo
to the Lord she prayed
 oh Lord please tell me do,
why you took my mom with you
And why on Earth was I left all alone?
 for, I loved her don't you see
 she was so good to me
 she always taught me
 what was right from wrong
