Believe - Jennifer Hudson
Old man Wrigley lived
in that white house
Down the street where I grew up
Momma used to send me
over with things
We struck a freindship up
I spent a few long summers
out on his old porch swing
Says he was in the war
when in the navy
Lost his wife lost his baby
I broke down and asked
him one time
How ya keep from going crazy
He said I`ll see my son and wife
in just a little while
I asked him what he meant
He looked at me and smiled said
I raise my hands bow my head
I`m finding more and more truth
in the words written in red
They tell me that there`s more
to life just what I can see
Oh I believe

Few years later
I was off at college
Talkin` on the phone
to my mom one night
Getting all caught up
on the gossip
of the small town life
She said oh by the way
old man Wrigley has died
Later on that night
I laid there thinkin` back
I thought about a couple
long lost summers
I didn`t know whether
to cry or laugh
If there was ever anybody
who desevred a ticket
to the other side
It`d be that sweet old man
who looked me in the eye said
I raise my hands bow my head
I`m finding more and more truth
in the words written in red
They tell me that
there`s more to life than
just what I can see
I can`t quote the book
The chapter or the verse
You can`t tell me it all ends
In a slow ride in a hearse
You know I`m more
and more convinced
The longer that I live
Yeah this can`t be
No it can`t be
this can`t be all there is
I raise my hands bow my head
I`m finding more and more truth
in the words written in red
tell me that
there`s more to life
than just what I can see
I believe I believe

I believe I believe
I believe I believe
I believe
I believe I believe
I still believe
