Brooks & Dunn – Believe

Written by Ronnie Dunn & Craig Wiseman

 

 

Old man Wrigley lived in that white house

Down the street where I grew up

Momma used to send me over with things

We struck a friendship up

I spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing


Says he was in the war when in the navy

Lost his wife, lost his baby

Broke down and asked him one time

How ya keep from going crazy

He said I’ll see my wife and son in just a little while

I asked him what he meant

He looked at me and smiled, said

 

(Chorus)

 

I raise my hands, bow my head

I’m finding more and more truth in the words written in red

They tell me that there’s more to life than just what I can see

Oh, I believe

 

Few years later I was off at college

Talkin’ to mom on the phone one night

Getting all caught up on the gossip

The ins and outs of the small town life

She said oh by the way son, old man Wrigley’s died

 

Later on that night, I laid there thinkin’ back

Thought ‘bout a couple long-lost summers

I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh

If there was ever anybody deserved a ticket to the other side


It’d be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye said

 

(Chorus)

 

I raise my hands, bow my head

I’m finding more and more truth in the words written in red

They tell me that there’s more to life than just what I can see

Oh, I believe

 

I can’t quote the book

The chapter or the verse

You can’t tell me it all ends 

In a slow ride in a hearse

You know I’m more and more convinced

The longer that I live

Yeah, this cant be

No, this cant be

Not this can’t be all there is

 

(Chorus)

 

I raise my hands, bow my head

I’m finding more and more truth in the words written in red

They tell me that there’s more to life than just what I can see

Oh, I believe

Oh, I believe

I believe

I believe

I believe

I believe

I believe
