If I condensed my words into a song
Could your courage finally come?
How could I get it to stay inside your frame
Like a ship inside of that bottle?
With grace and speed, I then proceed
To fold it by its seams
And then I push it down your throat
And let it settle where your heart used to be
'Cause I believe in you
Do you believe in you?
Just say, "Even if my love is thrown away"
"Then I will build it back again one day"
And even if my love is thrown away
Then I will overcome and bravely say
"I won't let myself be afraid"
♪
See, I was taking baby steps
To get where I needed to be
But I let the courage lead to giant leaps
And it brought that girl to me
Now, everything she touches turns to gold
And flowers grow in her footsteps
Every word is wise, every tear she cries
Is an ocean on my map
I swear I believe in you
Do you believe in you?
Just say, "Even if my love is thrown away"
"Then I will build it back again one day"
And even if my love is thrown away
Then I will overcome and bravely say
"I won't let myself be afraid"
I won't let myself be afraid
♪
I've been saying I believe in you
Do you believe in you, too?
And wedding bells won't ring 'til you break your shell
And learn to love yourself
And then, even if your love is thrown away
Then you will build it back again one day
And even if your love is thrown away
Then you will overcome and bravely say
You won't let yourself be afraid
