Believe lyrics

Old man Wrigley lived in that white house

Down the street where I grew up

Mama used to send me over with things

We struck a friendship up

I spent a few long summers

Out on his old porch swing

Said he was in the war, were in the navy

Lost his wife, lost his baby

Broke down and asked him one time

"How you keep from goin' crazy?"

He said, "I'll see my wife and son in just a little while"

Mm, I asked him what he meant, he looked at me and smiled

Said, "I raise my hands

Bow my head

I'm findin' 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"

A few years later I was off at college

Talkin' to mom on the phone one night

Gettin' all caught up on the gossip

The ins and outs of the small town life

She said: "Oh by the way, son

Old man Wrigley has died"

Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' back

Thought about a couple long-lost summers

I didn't know whether to cry or laugh

If there was ever anybody, deserved a ticket to the other side

It'd be that sweet old man, looked me in the eye, said

I raise my hands, bow my head

I'm findin' 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

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

Lord, I raise my hands, bow my head

Oh, I'm findin' more and more truth, in the words written in red

They tell me that there's more to this

Than just what I can see (just what I can see)

I believe

Oh, I

I believe

I believe

(I believe) hmmm

(I believe) I believe

(I believe) I believe

(I believe) Oooh I believe

(I believe) uuh (I believe) (I believe)
