From the recording Circle Of Love
The lyrics express the singer's deep connection with an imaginary friend who provides constant support and understanding. The singer finds solace and companionship in their thoughts, acknowledging that their inner world is their own and a poet's perspective is unwavering. The song repeatedly invites the imaginary friend to run away and pretend together.
A great first song to the album Circle of Love, as it is still so innocent, before starting to get involved with someone else....and so it begins....
Lyrics
SHE BELIEVES IN ME
AND UNDERSTANDS
SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I NEED HER
TO LEND A HAND
SHE’S ALWAYS ON MY MIND
AND IN MY REVERIE
IT’S AS IF A DREAM COMES TRUE
SHE MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME
SO COME WITH ME MY IMAGINARY FRIEND
LET’S RUN AWAY NOW TOGETHER
LET’S PRETEND
I GET LOST IN MY THOUGHTS
FOR COMPANY
I WAS DISILLUSIONED
BUT NOW I SEE
THAT BY ANY STRETCH
OF WHAT I THINK
THE WORLD INSIDE MY HEAD IS MINE
AND A POETS EYE WILL NEVER BLINK
SO COME WITH ME MY IMAGINARY FRIEND
LET’S RUN AWAY NOW TOGETHER
LET’S PRETEND
