It's Only Make Believe Conway Twitty Written by Conway Twitty and Jack Nance Peaked at # 1 in 1958 Later covered by Glen Campbell as a Top 10 pop hit in 1970. Also performed by Lou Christie & Lesley Gore as a somewhat-obscure 1986 medley version with "Since I Don't Have You" People see us everywhere They think you really care But myself I can't deceive I know it's only make believe. My one and only prayer is that some day you'll care, My hopes, my dreams come true, my one and only you. No one will ever know how much I love you so My only prayer will be someday you'll care for me But it's o-only make believe. My hopes, my dreams come true, my life I'd give for you, My heart, a wedding ring, my all, my everything. My heart I can't control, you rule my very soul, My only prayer will be someday you'll care for me But it's o-only make believe. My one and only prayer, is that some day you'll care, My hopes, my dreams come true, my one and only you No one will ever know how much I love you so My prayer, my hope, and my schemes, you are my every dream But it's o-only make believe
