It all started nine years ago You sat to my left back in school The future showed itself to me The god in you, the god in me, stood together like two trees I was so shy to inquire If you would like tea sometime Then in my Mercury Hand on hand, hand on knee Mercy, mercy, mercy me And I believe in love To be the center of all things And I believe in love to be the way And I believe in love To be the center of all things And I believe in love to be the way To find our inner light I saw a vision where we Were opening presents Christmas Day But we were not all alone The wedding was shotgun We had a daughter and a son So how cruel to realize You had a woman all the time But my love burns bright as the sun The clouds may come, the clouds may go And I'll still be here at your door And I believe in love Thank you for waiting through my lovers Knowing we could come home to each other Yes, I have waited through these winters My true one was right here And I believe in love
