I just can't help believin'
I just can't help believin' when she smiles up soft and gentle,
with a trace of misty morning and a promise of tomorrow in her eyes.
And I just can't help believin' when she's lying close beside me,
and my heart beats with the rhythm of her sighs.
This time the girl is gonna stay,
This time the girl is gonna stay
[NC]For more than just a day.
I just can't help believin' when she slips her hand in my hand,
and it feels so small and helpless that my fingers fold around it like a glove.
And I just can't help believin' when she's whisperin' her magic,
and her tears are shinin' honey sweet with love.
This time the girl is gonna stay,
This time the girl is gonna stay
[NC]For more than just a day.
For more than just a day.
