Jennifer Hudson — Believe (I Remember Me 2011)

Текст песни: Believe (I Remember Me 2011)

Believe LyricsOld man Wrigley lived in that white house
Down the street where I grew up
Momma used to send me over with things
We struck a friendship up
I spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing

Says he was in the war in the navy
Lost his wife, lost his baby
I Brokedown and I asked him one time
How ya keep from going crazy
He said I'll see my wife and son in just a little while
I asked him what he meant
He looked at me and smiled, and said
I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
Oh I believe

A few years later, I was off to college
Talkin' to mama on the phone one night
Getting all caught up in the gossip
Of the small-town life
She said, oh, by the way, child, old man Wrigley's died

Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' back
Thought 'bout a couple of long-lost summers
I didn't know whether to cry or laugh
If there was ever anybody who deserved a ticket to the other side
It'd be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye, said

I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see

I can't quote the book
The chapter or the verse but
You can't tell me it all ends
In a slow ride in a hearse
You know I'm more and more convinced
The longer that I live
Yeah, this can't be
No, this can't be
No, this can't be all there is
When I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
I believe
Ohhh
I believe
Oh
Do you believe?
Because I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
