Colvin, Shawn - Something To Believe In Lyrics






You will wander around
And it won't be the same
All the signs will be down
And it's starting to rain out
It's a lonely place
That you've brought it to now
You wanted to love
You didn't know how but
There will always be something to believe in

Do you believe in a miracle
Or just the things that you heard
Do you believe in a lover
Or just the curve of the world
Another stab every morning
To make sense of it all
Now you can go home
To nothing at all
There will always be something to believe in

There will always be stars in the wind
Little lines on your face when you grin
When it looks like you've done it again
And you just don't know where to begin
There will always be something to believe in

    August 15, 2017 @ 224pm - Dear Shawn Colvin, I love you. It feels to me that we're nearing the time when this song reaches full maturity and having reached that point still loving you as I have for all these years, I'm hoping I may be exempted from the 'now you can go home to nothing at all...' clause. If there's any grace left it this world please let it be applied to this request. Shawn, I don't know how to express how much I love and need you. I think this is your number one song in the psychic/mystic category because there's nothing for me to believe in beyond I've learned everything I ever could have dreamed of about the human soul through your songs and presence. So, thank you for the aspect of this life that has by far, been the deepest and most meaningful. So, if indeed we are approaching the edge of time, please know that the only home I ever want to return to now is as one of the multitude of souls that love and need you. To be separated from that world is too terrifying to even put into words. But I don't love you out of that fear. I love you for all the reasons I've written about for awhile now. Mostly your voice that is like a hypnotic wand waved by the most beautiful fairie Goddess I've ever seen. I've never had a dream that approaches the kind of beauty I've seen and heard expressed through your soulful, insightful and integral to the human soul songs. I love you Shawn. I hope you're having a great day. It's cool and cloudy here today but I'm fine for the most part. Tea and cigarettes. I'm almost skinny. How are you? I won't offer kisses cause I'm pleading for my soul but I did think of it and censored myself and somehow I 'know' you 'know' all of that. I believe in you, your songs and your goodness. And I loved you for the first time because you were the absolute cutest thing I've ever seen and knew it would be a lifetime lesson in coping skills not yet developed. But here we are. Now I love you because if the world didn't include you I wouldn't want any part of. All my prayers now are focused on my wish that you might through grace and compassion extend the same to me. But as we know I'm pretty vulnerable in that regard hence my life is focused on coping. But it's a beautiful day here and I hope to see you again. I pray that in the next life the energies behind my internet addiction might manifest directly through music. Peace

    February 24, 2017 - 837am - I'm up early because I couldn't go back to sleep with so much on my heart, mind and soul. I intend to go elsewhere and write about it. I don't want to be soul dead. I do not believe that I'm soul dead in this moment. I guess I felt that way at 1231am. There's a lot I need to express today. I'm going to erase the last comment I made because I don't believe it's true. I was in despair for reasons I'll talk about elsewhere this morning. Peace

    Sometimes it's enough to know you have a piece of NY sharp cheddar cheese left in the fridge but most of the time you'll need to listen to Shawn Colvin sing a song to really have faith in the future. Peace
