Lyrics

I
You gave your best
And you’ve tried and you’ve done all you could
But everything still decides to
Crumble and fall with no one to call
How do you live through this pain
All I can say is…

CHORUS
You’ve gotta believe / Start to believe
In your faith and in love, and in hope
You’ve gotta know that you’re never alone
Never give up
When doubt comes in, live on
‘Cause tomorrow’s a brand new day
And the sunshine will shine your way
You will achieve if you believe

II
There are days
When no one else seems to quite understand
And they talk behind your back
You know it’s not true, they don’t have a clue
Their words feel like thorns through your heart
Look to the sky and…

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
There’s always gonna be mountains to climb
Sometimes it feels like the sun won’t shine
So just have patience and in due time
Your life will be full of glee

REPEAT CHORUS except “if you believe”

CODA
Yes, you will
