Lyrics
When you tell me that you're mine, I believe you
Even though you could be lyin', I believe you
I believe you when you say you'll be with me come what may
Though you might just run away - I still believe you
When I ask you where you've been, I believe you
And you say you're with a friend, I believe you
Yes I always will believe that you're never gonna leave
And that may be too naïve, but I believe you
Friends all say I must be blind
To the way you're so unkind
And wonder why I'm so inclined to be with you
Even though my eyes are closed
My trusting heart still knows
All the reasons that I chose to forgive you
If I stayed out way too late, would you believe me?
Would you still stay up and wait? Would you believe me?
Tell me then, would you feel used, if you were standing in my shoes?
I wonder if you'd ever choose to believe me
You know there's gonna come a day when I won't need you
Someone will come, take me away, and it won't be you
You'll hear my footsteps on the floor as I'm walking out the door
I won't be here anymore, I'm gonna leave you
And it won't be like before when I believed you
I won't believe you, no, I won't believe you
