Believe It Or Not

Believe it or not

I've been waiting for you to come through

Love of my life

Believe it or not

I've been waiting for you to come through

Love of my life

And though the hour grew later and later

I would hold on for one more heartbeat

While my friends around me were calling

";Today, today, today, today";

As strange as it seems

I remember your face from before

Believe it or not

Before you and I were washed up

On this alien shore

As strange as that seems

Though the hour grew later and later

Still I'd hold on for one more heartbeat

While my friends around me were calling

";Today, today, today, today";

Today the world seems brighter

Light and bright and right somehow

I could not have held on tighter

Waiting for the past to come to pass, no

Once in a dream I've seen myself through your eyes

This you should know

Wading the stream that flows in between you and I

Once in a dream

And though the hour grows later and later

I would hold on for one more heartbeat

While my friends around me were calling

";Today, today, today, today";
