Damn Yankees - Someone to Believe Lyrics

Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent



There was a time

When a man lived by his word

And the simple truth

Was not so hard to take

When his enemies

Were thousands of miles away

And he stood by

The promises he'd make

All that I ask for

All that I need

Is someone that I can believe

Yeah

Just like the air

That we breathe in a single day

To a drowning man

How much do you think he'd pay

All that I ask for

All that I need

Is someone that I can believe

When I listen to the things you try to say

Any ordinary man would fade away

But if you want I'm ready to receive

I know that I can believe

Every word you say

And the love you give away

Goes straight to my heart

And everything you do

And how you follow through

Can keep us together

Or tear us apart

When I listen to the things you try to say

Any ordinary man would fade away

But if you want I'm ready to receive

Well I would not have it any other way

I know that I

I know that I

I know that I can believe

Yeah

And I am listening

To every word you say
