"I'm A Believer (Blues)" lyrics - THE MONKEES
[Micky:]
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else, but not for me
Love was out to get me (do do do, do do)
That's the way it seemed to me (do do do, do do)
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Then I saw her face (then I saw her face)
Now I'm a believer (J: I'm a believer)
Not a trace (J: not a trace)
Of doubt in my mind (J: in his mind)
I'm in love (J: I'm in love)
Now I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
If I tried
[Julie:]
I thought love was more or less a givin' thing
Seems the more I gave, the less I got (M: get a little less)
What's the use in tryin'? (M: I kept on tryin')
All you get is pain (M: I got a pain in my eyes)
When I needed sunshine I got rain (M: got-a rain, a-rain in my eyes)
[M:] I saw her face (then I saw her face)
[M:] Now I'm a believer / [J:] Believer
[M:] Not not-a not-a not-a trace / [J:] Not a trace
[J:] Of doubt in his mind / [M:] Of doubt in my mind
[J:] He's in love / [M:] I'm in love
[M:] And I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Try, try, gotta try, try to believe her, try to believe her...
