In "Believe Me" by JOHNNY DRILLE, the question of trust and the search for true love are explored. The lyrics speak to the confusion that can arise when there is uncertainty in relationships, and the desire to be believed when professing love. The first verse talks about how the singer has been waiting for love for a long time and is now in love with the person, but is unsure what the person has done to him to make him feel this way. A plea is made for the person to believe in the singer's love as it is the only thing that matters.
In the second verse, the singer implores the listener to trust and believe him when he says that his love is genuine. He promises that his love is more than any other love that has been given and that he will give his all to make the relationship work. The chorus is repeated thrice throughout the song, emphasizing the importance of the person the singer is addressing.
Overall, "Believe Me" speaks to the vulnerability of love and the trust that is required for a relationship to flourish. It shows that sometimes, despite our best efforts, we can't always rationalize the workings of the heart.
