lyrics

Seasons and feelings play tricks like street magicians
Stealing pocket change with fistfuls of my heart

Deception at its best is blindingly simple
Despite it all
Despite it all

I believe
I, I believe
I, I

You can be as dry as a Saguaro
But they'll have to get through me to steal your bones
Stones roll, gather no moss, make life seem futile
But you don't have to go it alone

Fear makes frigid the heart strings
When all they need is a tender strumming
So let me play on you a song
And let your soul resonate

And you'll believe
I, I believe
I, I

Every lover grows pale in the sight of their beloved
But if you take a look, I've got a great disguise
So have you, pallid snow ivory
A figment for my dreams
A haunting memory

Several years gone by
Who knows what's changed
Our heart still bleed
That much has stayed the same

Say my prayers under my breath
And whisper your name
Sing my songs every day
The same refrain

That I believe
I, I believe
I, I

Love at its best is blindingly simple
Despite it all
Despite it all

And I believe
I, I believe
I, I believe
I, I believe
I, I

Seasons and feelings play tricks like street magicians
Stealing pocket change with fistfuls of my heart
