If I Didn't Believe In You

There are people
and they are publishing my book

And there's a party
that they are throwing

And while you've made it very clear
that you're not going,
I will be going

And that's done

But what is it really about
Is it really about a party
Cathy,
can we please for a minute
stop blaming and say what you feel

Is it just that you're dissapointed
to be touring again for the summer
Did you think this will all be much easier
than it's turned out to be

Well then talk to me Cathy
Talk to me

If I didn't believe in you
we'd never have gotten this far

If I didn't believe in you
and all of the ten thousand women you are

If I didn't think you could do
anything you ever wanted to

If I wasn't certain
that you'd come through somehow

The fact of the matter is, Cathy
I wouldn't be standing here now

If I didn't believe in you
we wouldn't be having this fight

If I didn't believe in you
I'd walk out the door and say
Cathy, you are right

But I never could let that go,
knowing the things about you I know
Things when I met you four years ago

I knew

It never took much convincing
to make me believe in you

Don't we get to be happy Cathy
At some point down the line
don't we get to relax without some new tsuris to push me at further from you

If i am cheering on your side Cathy
Why can't you support mine
Why do I have to feel
I've committed some felony
doing what I swore I'd do

I don't want you to hurt

I don't want you to sink

But you know what I think
I think you'll be fine
Just hang on and you'll see
But don't make me wait till you do
To be happy with you

Will you listen to me

No one can give you courage
No one can thicken your skin

I will not fail so you can be comfortable Cathy
I will not lose because you can't win

If I didn't believe in you
then here's where the travel logs end
If I didn't believe in you
I couldn't have stood before all of our friends
and said this is the life I choose
This is the thing I can't bear to lose
Trip us or trap us but we refuse to fall

That's what I though we agreed on Cathy
If I hadn't believe in you
I wouldn't have loved you at all

Now why don't you put your dress on
and we'll go

Ok?

Cathy, can we just do that please?
Please
