I Still Believe
Tank Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh oh yeah
Can I get something off my chest?
Ooh um hmm

Every now and then I think of all the times we shared
Your the only one who lets me know you really care
I miss you more and more and day by day, it's hard to see
Just how you love me so and everything you gave to me

I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe

I can barely remember the time
The time we were caught in the rain
How you took my hand and you said I have things to say
It's the little things that makes me stronger everyday
I don't know if you hear me somewhere I hope your listening

I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe

You're the only one
(Be the only one)
Who shined a light into my life
Took me from where I was and
Lead me toward what was right

You're the only one
(Be the only one)
Who shined a light into my life
Took me from where I was and
Lead me toward what was right

I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe

I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe

I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go




Until I let you know I still believe
