Fleetwood Mac - Not Make Believe lyrics

Written by Stevie Nicks

Isn't just that we cause each other such pain

Everywhere we go now, at home or at play

It hurts my self esteem, it hurts my everything

I am reeling... oh, it hurts my feelings

Sometimes it was heavenly (Sometimes it was heavenly)

Sometimes it was too heavy (Sometimes it was too heavy)

Sometimes it's just too much for me (Sometimes it's just too much for me)

Well I want to run away (Oh, well I want to run away)

Then there are the things, cast this doubt away

Those things that made me stay for so long

Not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

Not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

I didn't understand then, but I understand now

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

And they both rushed by, like a thief in the night

Taking no prisoners, just like the first time

Adventures in paradise

Just like the first time

Then there are the things, cast this doubt away

Those things that made me stay for so long

Not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

Not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

I didn't understand then, but I understand now

Then there are the things, cast this doubt away

Those things that made me stay for so long

Not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

It's not make believe then, I'm not make believe now

I didn't understand then, but I understand now
