Lyrics

I Won't Be Leaving
('Cause I Believe In You)

Sometimes we've all got to crash
and burn.
Today just happened to be your turn.
It's nothing personal.
You're not the first one to fail.
The only thing to do is live
and learn.
Get back in line and just wait your turn
and be on deck when the next ship sets sail.

Some times we all have a show
that flops.
It opens up, and the attendance drops.
There's no magic, and it tragically lays an egg.
But don't you know that it's still
a thrill
to see your name printed in the bill.
So try to fix it using all of the tricks of the trade.

Well, there's bad days, sad days, driving-you-mad days
in any walk of life that you choose.
But there'll be bright days, right days, completely out-of-sight days
if you do the best you can do.

And any time you need a hand
to hold,
a little comfort when the nights are cold or
a big umbrella when life rains down on you,
well, you can count on me through thick
or thin.
I'll be beside you with my big old grin, and
I won't be leaving 'cause I believe in you.

You know I love you, and that's the reason
I'll be here as long as I'm still breathing.
I won't be leaving 'cause I believe in you.
