"I'm A Believer", written by Neil Diamond


I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw (his) face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave (him) if I tried.

I thought love was more or less a giving thing,
Seems the more I gave, the less I got.
What's the use in trying?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw (his) face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave (him) if I tried.

It's no trick loving somebody at their best. Love is loving them at their worst.

As bad as I am, I'm proud of the fact that I'm worse than I seem.
