Believe Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm still trying to figure out how to tell you I was wrong
I can't fill the emptiness inside since you've been gone
So is it you, or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
[Chorus]
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!
[Verse 2]
I can't undo the things that led us to this place
But I know there's something more to us than our mistakes
So is it you, or is it me?
I know I'm so blind when we don't agree
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
I'm still trying to figure out how to tell you I was wrong
I can't fill the emptiness inside since you've been gone
So is it you, or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
[Chorus]
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!
[Verse 2]
I can't undo the things that led us to this place
But I know there's something more to us than our mistakes
So is it you, or is it me?
I know I'm so blind when we don't agree
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
[Chorus]
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!

[Interlude]
Is it you, or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
You should have known me by now
You should've known me
[Chorus]
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you!
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you!
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!
[Guitar Solo]
[Interlude]
Is it you, or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
You should have known me by now
You should've known me
[Chorus]
If you believed!
When I said
I'd be better off without you!
Then you never really knew me at all!
If you believed!
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you!
You thought you knew the truth, but you're wrong!
[Outro]
Cause you're all that I want!
Don't you even know me at all?
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!
Cause you're all that I want!
Don't you even know me at all?
You're all that I need!
Just tell me that you still believe!
