Allison Moorer - Believe You Me lyrics

The cuckoo clock quit chirping The bird fell out and died Spent its whole life working And never learned to fly It ran out of time A man jumped in the river To wash away his sin In his religious fervor Forgot he couldn't swim No one saved his skin Believe you me I want to believe in you Believe you me I want to believe I do A woman works the corner Of Hollywood and Vine No one can afford her But we stand in line Cause her love is blind Believe you me I want to believe in you Believe you me I want to believe I do
