Somewhere in the darkness, just before the rising sun
There's a light that you can see, it's there for everyone
As it often happens, while you slipping down your rope
When you reach the end of it, there's nothing left but hope

And when there's nothing to believe in
You believe in nothing less than hope

--Refrain--
So let it follow you down
Till you hear the sweet sound
And then you turn around
--------------------
Now & then it's hard to see, when you're blinded by the light
There's another way that you can, choose to live your life
But nothing's every easy and it may not be enough
When you think you hit the bottom, but you hope you're looking up

And when there's nothing to believe in
You believe in nothing more than love

-Refrain-
With your heart on your sleeve
Letting go as you grieve
You can make believe

--Last Refrain & End--
So let it follow you down
Till you hear the sweet sound
With your heart on your sleeve
You can make believe

When there's nothing to believe in...Make Believe

love the song, the recording, hell, I like all of it

nice country sound good message

Pretty good folk rock.

Very soulful and well-written piece with wise lyrics and really good performances, both vocal and instrumental.

Nice tight arrangement sweet vocals

This is a good album track that grows on second listen. It has a catchy rhythm and keeps the attention of the listener throughout the song. I will likely be humming part of the melody for a while. The melody and arrangement fit the lyric and vocal and carry the story and imagery in the song very well. It has a good hook and the singer is very easy on the ear.

Good mix! This song doesn't belong in the folk category. It is a bouncy little ditty, even the parts about feeling down were upbeat. The vocalist did a creditable job, made me want to listen again.

Respectfully submitted,

CowboySlim

Well produced. Very nice overall sound and classic country male voice. Very nice song.

I like this, I really like this. Really good job.
