Believe me;

I'm someone who believes in you.

Say you really had a million dollars

and a car for ev'ry day of the week,

so what?

You know what?

It wouldn't mean not a single thing

without that someone who believes it, too.

Yeah, you gotta have someone who believes in you.



Say you really had a Hollywood contract

and your face upon a big billboard,

big car, big star.

You'd move a lot, but you wouldn't get far

without that someone who believes it, too.

You better have someone who believes in you.



You are the truest part of me,

that quiet place

where I can be strong.

You come to fill my deepest need.

You call my name,

and I hear your song.



Believe me;

there's someone who believes in you.

So you really got the hots for stardom.

All you need is some big guitar to take you

and make you into an overnight star,

and then you'll find that stars get lonesome, too.

And you better have someone who believes in you.



You are the truest part of me,

that tender place

where I can be strong.

You come to fill my deepest need.

You speak my name,

and I hear your song.



So you really want a job in the circus.

Paint your face and make the people smile.

Hey clown, come on down.

You've been too long walkin' that high wire.

When you're falling, you'll be calling, too,

callin' out to someone who believes you,

someone who's there when nobody needs you,

callin' out to someone who

believes in you.
