I STILL BELIEVE
 
Michael Been and Jim Goodwin
 
(I’ve) been in a cave
For forty days
Only a spark
To light my way
I wanna give out
I wanna give in
This is our crime
This is our sin

But I still believe
I still believe
Through the pain
And through the grief
Through the lives
And through the storms
Through the cries
And through the wars
Oh, I still believe ooh
I still believe mmm
Yeah yeah yeah
Ooh yeah yeah yeah

I’m flat on my back
Out at sea
And hopin' these waves
They don't cover me
And I'm turned and tossed
Upon the waves
When the darkness comes
I feel the grave

But I still believe
I still believe
Through the cold
And through the heat
Through the rain
(And) through the tears
Through the crowds
And through the cheers
Oh, I still believe
I still believe
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh

I'll march this road
I'll climb this hill
Upon on my knees if I have to
I'll take my place
Up on this stage
I'll wait 'til the end of time for you like everybody else

I'm out on my own
I’m walkin' the streets
Look at the faces
That I meet
I feel like I
Like I want to go home
What do I feel?
What do I know?

But I still believe
I still believe
Through all my shame
And through the grief
Through the heartache
And through the tears
Through the waiting
And through the years

For people like us
In places like this
We need all the hope
That we can get
Oh, I still believe
Yeah yeah yeah oh
Oh I still believe
I still believe
Believe
We need all the hope that we can get
Oh I still believe
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah oh
Oh I still believe
‘Gonna march this road
But I still believe
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Oh I still believe
