I Do Believe
The Zombies featuring Colin Blunstone & Rod Argent Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walk along the road
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
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

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

Line by Line Meaning

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
