lyrics from reprint of 1966 sheet music
lyrics in parentheses are corrections based on the recorded version.
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
And (Meant) for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
(no chord)
Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer!
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
I thought love was more or less a given (givin' ?) thing
Seems the more I gave, the less I got
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine, I got rain.
(no chord)
Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer!
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
REPEAT CHORUS AND FADE:
(no chord)
Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer!
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
