I believe you When you say that you will reach into the sky And steal a star so you can put it on my finger I believe you Baby, I believe you I believe you When you say that every time we make love Will be the first time we've made love And very act of love will please you Baby, I believe you (Bridge) Blind faith makes me follow you I'd live in a cave if you wanted to Just asked me and I'll marry you. `Cause you overwhelm me I've made up my mind for a lifetime. I believe you When you swear your love will keep on growin` strong And that forever isn't long enough to love me like you need to Baby, I believe you Baby, I believe you Honey, I love you. (Repeat Bridge) When you say you'll fill my body with your soul And love will grow into a freckled little girl Who looks like we do Baby, I believe you Baby, I believe you Honey, I love you.
Richard Carpenter's liner notes for Carpenters: Their Greatest Hits And Finest Performances:
I Believe You was released in late 1978. It was written by Don and Dick Addrisi (who also wrote The Association's Never My Love). I feel Karen's performance on this track ranks with her finest.
