Believe

Lyrics

[Verse 1] So after all those one night stands You've ended up with heart in hand A child alone on your own Retreating Regretful for the things you're not And all the things you haven't got Without a home A heart of stone lies bleeding [Pre-Chorus] And for all the roads you followed And for all you did not find And for all the dreams you had to leave behind [Chorus] I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you's Believe [Verse 2] Your childhood eyes were so intense While bartering your innocence For bits of string The grown-up wings you needed But when you had to add them up You found that they were not enough To get you in And pay for sins Repeated [Pre-Chorus] And for all the years you borrowed And for all the tears you hide And for all the fears you had to keep inside [Chorus] I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you's Believe Yeah [Bridge] I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time 'Til time wasted me Never wanted to go Always wanted to stay 'Cause the person I am Are the parts that I play So I plot and I plan Hope and I scheme To the lure of a night Filled with unfinished dreams And I'm holding on tight To a world gone astray As they charge me for years I can't pay Yeah [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you's Believe
