Can we please for a minute stop blaming
And say what you feel?
Did you think this would all be much easier
Than it's turned out to be?
Talk to me
If I didn't believe in you
We'd never have gotten this far
If I didn't believe in you
And all of the ten thousand women you are
If I didn't think you could do
Anything you ever wanted to
If I wasn't certain that you'd come through somehow
The fact of the matter is, Cathy
I wouldn't be standing here now
If I didn't believe in you
We wouldn't be having this fight
If I didn't believe in you
I'd walk out the door and say,
"Cathy, you're right"
But I never could let that go
Knowing the things about you I know
Things, when I met you four years ago, I knew
It never took much convincing
To make me believe in you
Don't we get to be happy, Cathy?
At some point down the line
Don't we get to relax?
Without some new tsuris
To push me yet further from you?
I don't want you to hurt
I don't want you to sink
But you know what I think?
I think you'll be fine
Just hang on and you'll see-
No one can give you courage
No one can thicken your skin
If I didn't believe in you
Then here's where the travelogue ends
This is the thing I can't bear to lose
Trip us or trap us, but we refuse to fall
That's what I thought we agreed on
If I hadn't believed in you
I wouldn't have loved you at all
Is it absolutely pitiful that to get through half of my days I have to pretend someone is singing this song to me?
And say what you feel?
Did you think this would all be much easier
Than it's turned out to be?
