Can't Hear the Music?

I'm A Believer

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 (duh-duh, duh-duh)
That's the way it seemed (duh-duh, duh-duh)
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her 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 her if I tried

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

Then I saw her 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 her if I tried...
