Conway Twitty - It's Only Make Believe

"It's Only Make Believe" is a song written by Jack Nance and Conway Twitty, released by Twitty as a single in July 1958.

The single topped both U.S. and British national charts, as well as No. 1 in 21 other countries and was Twitty's only number-one single. The record took nearly one year to reach and stay at the top spot on the Billboard music charts in the U.S.

The song's lyrics describe the thoughts and feelings of a man in love with a woman who does not seem to be in love with him. He hopes and prays that, at some point in the future, the woman will be able to return his love, but laments that, at present, "it's only make believe."
