Pretend you're happy when you're blue
It isn't very hard to do
And you will find happiness without
An end if you pretend
Remember anyone can dream
And nothin's bad as it may seem
The little things you haven't got could be
A lot if you pretend
You'll find a love you can share
One you can call your own
Just close your eyes you'll be there
You'll never be alone
And if you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine it can be yours my friend
So why don't you pretend
You'll find a love you can share
One you can call your own
Just close your eyes you'll be there
You'll never be alone
And if you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine it can be yours my friend
So why don't you pretend
So why don't you pretend
So why don't you pretend
So why don't you pretend
a great song I can remember him performing this song on top of the pops,in 81.liked it.i also remember seeing him at a record fair in Newcastle.i was sat literally yards from him,i was dying to say hello to him but sadly didn't.very very sad he died.

Im always sad to think hes not with us, i met the man a few times, he was the type of guy you wanted to be his friend. Thank you for the memories and the music.
