"The Truth Of My Life In Songs..."


I've often thought that much of my life could be set to music... And if so, this would be one of the songs on the soundtrack of my life...

This would be the soundtrack from those first few tough, but glorious months of loving him... Though the pronouns are wrong, the sentiment is right, this is how it feels to believe in someone and believe in love.


I Believe In You (You Believe In Me)

Johnnie Taylor

I feel sorry, I feel sorry
I feel sorry, I feel sorry
I feel for sorry
For any man out there
When he can't look around
And say this is my woman
Leave my woman alone
I feel sorry, yeah
For any woman out there
Who can't say I got somebody
That I can call my very own
I feel sorry, I feel sorry
I feel sorry, I feel sorry
One thing I can say about
The people of the world today
They see you with a good thing
They want to take it away
But I believe in you
You believe in me too, yeah
Even your best friend will come
Around making sly remarks
Trying to put you down
I believe in you
You believe in me too
Listen, honey
People talking
Trying to pull us apart
Sticking pins and needles
In both of our hearts
I love you no matter
Don't care about
The stormy weather

I believe in you
You believe in me too
I heard your mother say
Loving me didn't make no sense
But when she put me down
You stood up in my defense
I believe in you
Anytime you against
Your own mother
It makes me know
You believe in me, yeah
Here's another thing
We had our hard times
And almost didn't make it
We always worked it
Never tried to fake it
I believe in you
You believe in me too
Here's anything about it
People talking
Trying to pull us apart
Always ticking pins and
Needles in both of our hearts
But our love together
Don't care about
The stormy weather
I believe in you
You believe in me too, yeah
I believe
That's why every time
We get a chance
I tell you, honey
How much I love you
Love you, love you
Love you, love you
And most of all
How much I trust you
The reason why I trust you, baby
Is because of one thing
I can lean on you, yeah, baby
And you can lean on me too
One more time I'm gonna say
I believe in you
Honey, please
Let me believe in you
I know a lot of folk out there
Wish they had somebody
They could believe in
I believe, I believe in you
You believe in me too
Anytime you stand up against
Your own mother
It makes me know
You believe in me
I believe in you
And you've shown me enough
To let me know you believe in me too
