|
I was born in the southland, down there in Texas, U.S.A. |
|
I was never supposed to know a moment |
|
Of unhappiness in my life |
|
Somehow it didn't work out that way |
|
I was born back in the sixties |
|
I was born and raised to win |
|
We had beaten, beaten back the darkness |
|
But somehow the darkness slipped back in |
|
If I ever get to Heaven |
|
Which I hope I'm gonna do |
|
They'll say, "How did you know?" |
|
I'll say, "I just knew, I always believed in you" |
|
I went looking for a lover |
|
But I didn't know the rules |
|
I made six wrong turns and nearly died |
|
But the 7th time I made it through |
|
I went looking for the answers |
|
I wanted nothing but truth |
|
I went driving towards a light at a hundred miles an hour |
|
But I was running low on proof |
|
If I ever get to Heaven |
|
Which I hope I'm gonna do |
|
And they'll say, "How did you know?" |
|
I'll say, "I just knew, I always believed in you" |
|
Gonna walk right up to the bossman I'm gonna say |
|
Couldn't believe the scene down there |
|
It was kinda like livin' in a dream down there |
|
There wasn't too much to believe in down there |
|
Believe it or not, I always believed in you |
|
If I ever get to Heaven |
|
Which I hope I'm gonna do |
|
And they'll say, "How did you know?" |
|
I'll say, "I made it through 'cause I always believed in you" |
|
I couldn't believe the crazy scene down there |
|
It was kinda like linin' in a dream down there |
|
There wasn't too much to believe in down there |
|
Believe it or not, I always believed in, in you |
|
I always believed in you, I always believed in you |
|
I always believed in you |
