“Believing in You” is a variation on a common theme for me. Like so many of the songs on this album, it is about faith, about trusting our gifts, about finding the courage and willingness to step into a greater expression and experience of life.
Lyrics
BELIEVING IN YOU / Susan B. Shann / © 2005
You can always find a reason for putting off your dreams
But you’ll never reap the harvest without sowing the seeds
You can always make excuses, and go on running blind
But you’ll be the one who loses every time
Why not try for something better, like honoring your heart
Giving love a place to start
Why not trust that what’s inside you is beautiful and true
Why not start believing in you
‘Cause there will always be an answer
When you’re ready to receive
And an open door for what is meant to be
Between the path of least resistance, and the road to higher ground
Sometimes the only difference is what you choose right now
Why not try for something better, like honoring your heart
Giving love a place to start
Why not trust that what’s inside you is beautiful and true
Why not start believing in you
Spread your arms out wide, take a leap of faith
Spirit will be there to guide you all the way
Why not try for something better, like honoring your heart
Giving love a place to start
Why not trust that what’s inside you is beautiful and true
Why not start believing, Why not start believing
Why not start believing in you
Mmmhmm… believe in you
