I Pretend - Sandy Stewart & Stevie Nicks [Duet]

Ballad from Sandy Stewart's 1984 album, Cat Dancer. Stevie recorded and two additional tracks, Cat Dancers and Get My Way.

LYRICS
Someone's son, someone's man
Someone's inspiration, someone's friend
I depend on sleep to take me to you once again
And if I don't wake up to see
You standing here in front of me,
A dream won't die, a love won't end
'Cause you're forever mine
When I pretend--S. Stewart


The faithful listen to your every word
I've followed for years and I've seen and heard,
Learned and laughed,
Idle nights with melodies and photographs
But if realize someday
You're unaware, too far away
A dream won't die, a love won't end
'Cause you're forever mine
When I pretend


And when you're old with time's demands
You can be my teacher, I'll be your hands,
Play the part,
Stop for nothing but to have you hold me,
Precious heart,
If I accept what cannot be,
No longer count on destiny
A dream won't die, a love won't end
'Cause you're forever mine
When I pretend

Is this the same Sandy Stewart who played with Jimmy Clanton in "Go Johnny Go" in 1957?

[LiamMcConville]

It is not! :)

My favorite Sandy Stewart song was "Saddest Victory" but can't find it anywhere. Great song.

You really hear her on Stevie's "Nightbird". I remember her video for "Saddest Victory" from Catdancer. Thanks for posting.

Very nicely done, Liam. Love Sandy as you know. If anyone has the Blue Yonder album listen to In The Rain, beautiful song (no Stevie on that album though).

Awesome video! Sandy Stewart has the most angelic voice EVER, and Stevie Nicks is still as beautiful and talented as ever. Thanks for posting. I've been a Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac fan since I was in my early to mid teens. I'm 43 years old now, and I still have never lost my passion for their style of music. I don't think I ever will.
