Jerry Wexler - I Believe In You lyrics

[Verse 1] They ask me how I feel And if my love is real And how I know I'll make it through And they, they look at me and frown They'd like to drive me from this town They don't want me around Because I believe in you [Verse 2] They show me to the door They say don't come back no more Because I don't be like they'd like me to And I walk out on my own A thousand miles from home But I don't feel alone Because I believe in you [Verse 3] I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter I believe in you even though we be apart I believe in you even on the morning after Oh, when the dawn is nearing Oh, when the night is disappearing Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart [Verse 4] Don't let me drift too far Keep me where you are Where I will always be renewed And that which you've given me today Is worth more than I could pay And no matter what they say I believe in you [Verse 5] I believe in you when winter turn to summer I believe in you when white turn to black I believe in you even though I be outnumbered Oh, though the earth may shake me Oh, though my friends forsake me Oh, even that couldn't make me go back [Verse 6] Don't let me change my heart Keep me set apart From all the plans they do pursue And I, I don't mind the pain Don't mind the driving rain I know I will sustain Because I believe in you
