I Believe In...

I saw the news today, a teenage boy blown away
Another mother's lost her only son
He learned his way at school, fightin' is the golden rule
For 20 dollars, you can own a gun

I saw the words in red
Someone painted "Love is dead"
On the sign above the football field
I had to turn away
It hurts my soul to think that way
When love is what's real

'Cause I believe in
I believe in love
And I believe in
The miracles in us
And no matter what they say
They can never take away what I believe in
I believe in

In 1942, a demon army trampled through
Every inch of her forgotten town
The family hideaway, a secret place above decay
And there they lived and breathed without a sound

She learned to write that year
Of every scream she'd dare not hear
And every tortured soul, she one day moved

One day the soldiers came and marched her family to the train
And left her diary right in the street and it read

I believe in
I believe in love
I believe in
The miracles in us
And no matter what they say
They can never take away what I believe in
Oh, I believe in

Why is it that we can't help, but look for a crack of light in the darkest skies?
When will we come to understand that through right and wrong
Love's the only thing that's real?

So here we go again fighting 'til the bitter end
Better off to go our separate ways
And as you slam the door, I swear that I will love no more
But you can't believe a word I say, and that's right

'Cause I believe in
I believe in love
I believe in
The miracles in us
And no matter what I say
Can never take away what I believe in
Oh, I believe in

I believe in, yeah (I believe in love)
I believe in, oh (the miracles in us)
And no matter what they say
They can never take away what I believe in
Oh, I believe in love

I believe in love (love's the only thing that's real)
I believe in love (love's the only thing that's real)
I believe in love (love's the only thing that's real)

I believe in love and the miracles in all of us (love's the only thing that's real)
I believe in love and the miracles in all of us (love's the only thing that's real)
I believe in love and the miracles in all of us (love's the only thing that's real)
I believe in love and the miracles in all of us
