I'm a Believer - The Monkees - Greatest Hits
(Diamond) 1995 WEA/Rhino

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Oh, love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried

I thought love was more or less a giving thing
Seems the more I gave, the less I got
What's the use in trying?
All you get is pain
When I needed sunshine I got rain

Oh, then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried

Oh, love was out to get me
Now that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Oh, then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
Oh, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried

Yes I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
And not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
Said I'm a believer
I'm a believer
Said I'm a believer, yeah
Said I'm a believer, yeah
