I Do Believe
The Zombies featuring Colin Blunstone & Rod Argent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And past your door
Then I remember things you said
I know in time it could have been
So much more
But if you wanna come back home
Go right ahead
I don't believe in miracles
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace
To tell me where you are
I believe I was your game, your ball
If you threw me up, then I would fall
And so you've won again
You win them all
But I'd believe I'd run to you
If you should call
But I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in miracles
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace
To tell me where you are
And I believe that somewhere there's someone
Who's gonna light the way when things go wrong
The bullet that shot me down
Was from your gun
The words that turned me round
Were from your song
But I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in miracles
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace
To tell me where you are
The lyrics of The Zombies' song "I Don't Believe In Miracles" tell a story of a person who walks past their ex-lover's door and remembers the things they said. The person believes that their relationship had the potential to be much more, but they also acknowledge that if their ex-lover wants to come back, they are welcome to. However, despite the underlying hope that their ex-lover will return, the person confesses that they do not believe in miracles. They also express their frustration at their ex-lover's absence and wish that they could at least show their face or tell them where they are.

I walk along the road
I am taking a walk down the street
And past your door
I pass by your house
Then I remember things you said
Memories of your words come to my mind
I know in time it could have been
I understand that with the passage of time, things could have been different
So much more
We could have had a better relationship
But if you wanna come back home
If you want to return to our relationship
Go right ahead
Feel free to do so
But I don't believe in miracles
I do not believe in extraordinary events
I don't believe in miracles
I do not believe in improbable things
But I thought you might show your face
But I expected you to appear
Or have the grace
Or to have the decency
To tell me where you are
To let me know your whereabouts
I believe I was your game, your ball
I believe I was your plaything
If you threw me up, then I would fall
If you discarded me, I would be hurt
And so you've won again
Therefore, you have succeeded again
You win them all
You always win
But I'd believe I'd run to you
But I still have hope that I would come to you
If you should call
If you were to contact me
And I believe that somewhere there's someone
But I have faith that there is someone out there
Who's gonna light the way when things go wrong
Who will guide me when I am lost
The bullet that shot me down
The thing that hurt me was
Was from your gun
From your actions
The words that turned me round
The words that changed my mind
Were from your song
Were from something you said or did
