Try To Believe

(album: Dark At The End Of The Tunnel - 1990)

Well, I wish real hard when I close my eyes
If I could change the world, would I even try?
If I found a reason to regain my pride
Oh, if I try to believe—try to believe

It's so hard to find an answer
It's so hard to stand alone
It's so hard to find a feeling
That was buried long ago
It's so hard to trust another
When it's easier to hide
It's so hard to believe
Unless we try, baby, try

If I had a dream and it got away
If I found the words, would I know what to say?
If I had a chance to be someone else
Yeah, if I try to believe, try to believe

It's so hard to find an answer
It's so hard to stand alone
It's so hard to find a feeling
That was buried long ago
It's so hard to trust another
When it's easier to hide
It's so hard to believe
Unless we try, baby, try

Try to believe one more time
And I try, baby; try, baby; try....

If I found a door I've never been through
Would I have the courage to go in without you?
And if time runs short, would I recognize
The things I couldn't see
If I try to believe—try to believe

It's so hard to find an answer
It's so hard to stand alone
It's so hard to find a feeling
That was buried long ago
It's so hard to trust another
When it's easier to hide
It's so hard to believe
Unless we try, baby, try

If we listen to the voices that were silent for so long
If you thought they went away,
Well, you couldn't be more wrong
If I tell you there is something that we've
Lost but can retrieve
If I tell you there is hope, if we try to believe
You remember there's a dream that we
Long since put aside
With the toys that we discarded
And the tears we never cried
We could have it once again
If we try, baby, try
