Lyrics
I used to be the first one to cry
I used to be emotionally vulnerable, often being the first to cry.
So afraid of a lonely tomorrow.
I was fearful of facing a lonely future.
Heartache was all that I had
Heartache was my only companion.
To call my own- so all alone.
I had nothing but my own pain, feeling completely isolated.
You came along and gave to my life
You entered my life and brought something beyond pain and sorrow.
Something more than the pain and the sorrow.
You added joy and positivity, contrasting with my previous pain.
Now that you're with me, we'll never be alone,
Now that you're with me, we will never feel alone in love.
In love, in love.
Expressing the enduring nature of love.
Chorus:

I believe
Expressing belief in the love received.
In the love that you gave,
Belief in the transformative power of the received love.
I believe
Belief in the life saved by the impact of love.
In the life that you saved,

I believe how you make me feel

Today
Belief in the person's existence and influence.
I believe in you
Overall belief in the person addressed.
Night after night, I waited alone
Waiting alone night after night for a deeper connection.
For something deeper than yesterday's feelings.
Longing for something more profound than past emotions.
Never believing that love would ever come
Initially doubting that love would ever come into their life.
To me- oh no.
Expressing surprise at the arrival of love.
Then there was you, and out of the blue,
Referring to the sudden appearance of the person addressed.
Once a heart that was broken was healing.
Healing from a previously broken heart due to the newfound love.
Love is the reason we'll never be alone,
Love becomes the reason for never feeling alone.
Oh no- oh no
Reiterating the absence of loneliness with love.

I still believe,
Reaffirming the belief in something right.

I believe in you.
Reiteration of belief in the person.
