Just Pretend Lyrics by Mrs. Doubtfire on Broadway

Mrs. Doubtfire the Musical

2022

[LYDIA] (sung)
I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M SUPPOSED TO FEEL
I MEAN, I'VE SEEN YOUR WEDDING VIDEO
YOU SAID YOU'D LOVE EACH OTHER FOR FOREVER
FOR BETTER OR WORSE, SO WHERE DID THAT GO?
[DANIEL] (spoken)
I don't know.
[LYDIA] (sung)
YOU AND MOM WERE ALWAYS GOOD
AT ACTING LIKE THE PERFECT PAIR
SO WHY CAN'T YOU JUST KEEP IT GOING
ACTING LIKE THE LOVE'S STILL THERE?
MAYBE YOU COULD JUST PRETEND?
SAY THAT YOU COULD JUST PRETEND A LITTLE MORE?
IF YOU COULD JUST PRETEND
WE COULD STILL BE A FAMILY
[DANIEL] (spoken)
We probably could, but we'd be a pretend family. We'd be acting. You can't act 24 hours a day, it's not real acting– Acting's just a job.
[LYDIA]
And it's your job to be our father.
[DANIEL]
No! It is a joy! To be your father.
[DANIEL] (sung)
AND THAT IS NOT PRETEND!
THAT COULD NEVER BE PRETEND...
[DANIEL] (spoken)
I don't play the part of your father, okay? I am your father, always. It's the one wonderful thing I have in my life.
[LYDIA] (sung)
I JUST DON'T KNOW ANYMORE..
WHAT IS REAL, OR WHAT IS TRUE
BUT IF YOUR LOVE FOR MOM HAS ENDED THEN
COULDN'T YOUR LOVE FOR ME END TOO?
[DANIEL] (spoken)
What? No!
[DANIEL] (sung)
THAT COULD NEVER END
[LYDIA] (spoken)
Why not?
[DANIEL] (sung)
MY LOVE FOR YOU
COULD NEVER END, LYDIA
[DANIEL] (spoken)
It's different when you're kids.
[LYDIA]
How?
[DANIEL]
No– it– it just– it is, I promise you. Please tell me you know that?
[LYDIA, & DANIEL] (sung)
THAT WILL NEVER END
MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER END
MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER END
NEVER..
[DANIEL]
I ALWAYS PICTURED, WHAT OUR LIFE WOULD BE
AND THIS ISN'T THAT AT ALL
[LYDIA]
GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE A NEW PICTURE NOW
AND HANG IT ON OUR WALL
[DANIEL] (spoken)
A new picture.. Right. God, you grew up fast.
[LYDIA]
One of us had to!
