I believe that the sun shines after the rain,
I believe if you don't get hurt you'll never gain,
I believe in not doing things the easy way,
I believe that being selfish doesn't pay.
I believe in a second chance,
I believe in a life long romance,
I believe there is life after death,
And standing up to a life of mess.
I believe in love at first sight,
I believe that revenge isn't right,
I believe that first impressions last,
And there is nothing better then a good laugh.
I believe that dreams do come true,
I believe there's destiny for me and you,
I believe that good things come to those who wait,
I believe love never arrives too late.
I believe something good comes from something bad,
I believe that for tears of happiness there are tears of sad,
I believe everyone has a guardian angel,
And the good you do will be rewarded well.
I believe sometimes there is no explanation,
I believe money can't buy people's affection,
I believe you don't know what you've got until it's gone,
I believe a new day arrives with every dawn.
I believe a smile can be contagious,
I believe in being very outrageous,
I believe in living with no regrets,
I believe that life is as good as it gets.
I believe that God watches over us,
I believe the little things are worth the fuss,
I believe you have each friend for a reason,
I believe you will get punished for treason.
I believe that what comes first is family,
I believe we should all live in harmony,
I believe in making the most of a beautiful day,
And it's not the end until everything's okay.
I believe absence makes the heart grow fonder,
I believe you will lose if you sit and wonder,
I believe every experience teaches you a lesson,
And nothing cures better then a drinking session.
I believe everyone has one true love,
I believe sometimes we need a little shove,
I believe the whole world is a stage,
I believe we only get better with age.
I believe that to learn you have to live,
I believe that to love someone you have to give,
I believe one moment can change your life,
And there's still help when you're in strife.
I believe everyone has one true friend,
I believe love helps a broken heart mend,
I believe in the power of a song,
And things will change before too long.
I believe living is the best experience,
I believe in not laughing at other people's expense,
I believe it's hard to watch a lover leave,
And when they're gone all you can do is breathe
I believe to always look on the bright side,
I believe that life is just one big ride,
I believe when I die people will grieve,
But it's ok because I believe.
