Do I Believe

(album: Bigger Than America - 1996)

You spoke softly my name
Not wishing to be heard by anyone
Your gravity take me and pulls me
Into a mysterious world
A sense of expectation when you leave
It's time to go
There goes the girl with everything
She's all pretend, for all I know
She's saves her tears for years and years
Tied to someone else in effort to be free

Who do I believe?
As the letters in your name wrap around me like a chain
Do I believe?
As the words rearrange there is nothing I can change
I believe
The madness in your eyes holds tomorrow's sweet surprise
Believe
We can't tell the truth and live with this lie and still survive

That one insane second should never have been
All washed out, too scared to scream
I might as well say it, of course it's untrue
It happened to me, It can happen to you

There's no defence against a dream
I'm falling but there's no one there to see
It can't be me

I've saved my tears for years and years
Tied to someone else in an effort who be free

Who do I believe?
As the letters in your name wrap around me like a chain
Do I believe?
As the words rearrange there is nothing I can change
I believe
The madness in your eyes holds tomorrow's sweet surprise
Believe
We can't tell the truth and live with this lie and still survive
