Believe
Old man Wrigley lived in that white houseDown the street where I grew upMomma used to send me over with thingsWe struck a freindship upI spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing
Says he was in the war when in the navyLost his wife, lost his babyBroke down and asked him one timeHow ya keep from going crazyHe said I'll see my wife and son in just a little whileI asked him what he meantHe looked at me and smiled, said
[Chorus:]I raise my hands, bow my headI'm finding more and more truth in the words written in redThey tell me that there's more to life than just what I can seeOh I believe
Few years later I was off at collegeTalkin' to mom on the phone one nightGetting all caught up on the gossipThe ins and outs of the small town lifeShe said oh by the way son, old man Wrigley's died.
Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' backThought 'bout a couple long-lost summersI didn't know whether to cry or laughIf there was ever anybody desevred a ticket to the other sideIt'd be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye, said
[Chorus:]I raise my hands, bow my headI'm finding more and more truth in the words written in redThey tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
I can't quote the bookThe chapter or the verseYou can't tell me it all endsIn a slow ride in a hearseYou know I'm more and more convincedThe longer that I liveYeah, this can't beNo, this can't beNo, this can't be all there is
[Chorus:]When I raise my hands, bow my headI'm finding more and more truth in the words written in redThey tell me that there's more to life than just what I can seeI believeOhhhI believeOhDo you believe?Because, I believeI believeI believeI believeI believeI believe
