I Believed Lyrics

In a tiny town where the biggest things
Were the water tower and a young boy's
Dreams
I Believed

In a little house of simple means
Where doing without was a common
Scene
I Believed

On a dried up square of worthless Earth
Where we scratched our living out of
The Dirt
I Believed

In a little brown church where I first
Heard
The choir sing and the preacher's word
I Belived, oh I believed

CHORUS
And the closer that I looked within
The further I could see
And I really didn't have much other
Choice
So, I believed

In a high-rise world of steel and glass
Where a man dies young if he don't think
Fast
I Believed

On the streets where the truth is hard
To find
And what's in it for me is the bottom line
I Believed

In a place whre people don't seem to
Care
They turn their backs like you're not
There
I Believed

Yeah, where anything goes, it usually
Does
I held my breath and bit my tongue
And I believed, Oh I Believed

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
In a higher place, in a deeper faith
In a power stronger than you or me
I Believed

Now when they put that granite on my
Grave
All I want that stone to say is
I Believed

And where I'm from and the woman I love
The job I did and God Above
I Believed, I Believed, I Believed

I Believed, I Believed, I Believed
