Make Believe It's Your First Time - Carpenters - Free Sheet Music

"Make Believe It's Your First Time" is a song written by Bob Morrison and Johnny Wilson, and recorded by Bobby Vinton and later by The Carpenters.

Vinton's version was released as a single in late 1979 (b/w "I Remember Loving You") and reached No. 78 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 17 on the Adult Contemporary chart. It is Vinton's last Billboard Hot 100 entry to date.

The song was also recorded in 1979 by Karen Carpenter as a track intended for her debut solo album, which was ultimately shelved until 1996, with the release of her eponymous album, Karen Carpenter. After Karen's death in 1983, the re-recorded version from the Made in America sessions two years earlier - with its B-side, "Look to Your Dreams", were included on the duo's first posthumous album, Voice of the Heart.

Between 1979 and 1980, Karen Carpenter went to New York to record a solo album with Phil Ramone producing. "Make Believe It's Your First Time" was one of twenty tunes recorded. Karen's solo version is far more subdued with only a piano as her accompaniment. - wikipedia

Make Believe It's Your First Time 

Lyrics:

We've tried our hand

At love before

We've been around the game enough

To know the score'

But then is then

And now is now

All now is all that matters anyhow

[*] Make believe it's your first time

Leave your sadness behind

Make believe it's your first time

And I'll make believe it's mine

The door is closed

It's you and me

We'll take our time with love

The way it oughta be

This moment's ours

Tonigh's the night

And if we fall in love

Well, that's alright

[Repeat *]

So close your eyes

And hold me close

And let our hearts pretend

That love is ours to share tonight

And it might never end

[Repeat *]
