They Ask Me Why I Believe In You
[JO ANN]
Take heart, my friend—
I believe in you
I've bucked the trend—
I believe in you
Some say I'm blind
Or I'm out of my mind
They'd be startled to find
Every word is true

They ask me why
I believe in you
I only reply:
I believe in you
And darling, if you
Don't think half enough of yourself
It's because you don't love yourself
As I do

They ask me why
I believe in you
I only reply:
I believе in you
So darling, if you
Don't think half enough of yourself
It's becausе you don't love yourself
As I do
