And when I told them how beautiful you are, They didn't believe me. They didn't believe me.

And when I tell them, and I cert'nly am goin' to tell them, That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be. They'll never believe me. They'll never believe me. That from this great big world you've chosen me! And when I tell them, and I cert'nly am goin' to tell them, That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be. They'll never believe me.

Got the cutest little way Like to watch you all the day And it certainly seems fine Just to think that you'll be mine When I see your pretty smile Makes the living worth the while So I've got to run around Telling people what I've found And when I told them how beautiful you are They didn't believe me, they didn't believe me Your lips, your eyes, your cheeks, your hair Are in a class beyond compare You're the loveliest girl that one could see And when I tell them And I certainly am goin' to tell them That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be They'll never believe me, they'll never believe me That from this great big world you've chosen me Don't know how it happened quite May have been the summer night May have been; well, who can say? Things just happen any way All I know is I said "yes" Hesitating more or less And you kissed me where I stood Just like any fellow would And when I told them how wonderful you are They didn't believe me, they didn't believe me Your lips, your eyes, your curly hair Are in a class beyond compare You're the loveliest thing that one could see And when I tell them And I certainly am goin' to tell them That I'm the girl whose boy one day you'll be They'll never believe me, they'll never believe me That from this great big world you've chosen me

JAMIE There are people And they are publishing my book And there's a party That they are throwing. And while you've made it very clear that you're not going, I will be going. And that's done. But what's it really about? Is it really about a party, Cathy? Can we please for a minute Stop blaming and say what you feel? Is it just that you're disappointed To be touring again for the summer Did you think this would all be much easier Than it's turned out to be? Well, then talk to me, Cathy. Talk to me. If I didn't believe in you, We'd never have gotten this far. If I didn't believe in you And all of the ten thousand women you are. If I didn't think you could do Anything you ever wanted to, If I wasn't certain that you'd come through somehow, The fact of the matter is, Cathy, I wouldn't be standing here now. If I didn't believe in you, We wouldn't be having this fight. If I didn't believe in you, I'd walk out the door and say, "Cathy, you're right." But I never could let that go Knowing the things about you I know – Things, when I met you four years ago, I knew. It never took much convincing To make me believe in you. Don't we get to be happy, Cathy? At some point down the line, Don't we get to relax Without some new tsuris To push me yet further from you? If I'm cheering on your side, Cathy, Why can't you support mine? Why do I have to feel I committed some felony Doing what I always swore I would do? I don't want you to hurt, I don't want you to sink, But you know what I think? I think you'll be fine! Just hang on and you'll see – But don't make me wait 'til you do To be happy with you – Will you listen to me? No one can give you courage No one can thicken your skin. I will not fail so you can be comfortable, Cathy. I will not lose because you can't win. If I didn't believe in you, Then here's where the travelogue ends. If I didn't believe in you, I couldn't have stood before all of our friends And said, "This is the life I choose – This is the thing I can't bear to lose. Trip us or trap us, but we refuse to fall." That's what I thought we agreed on, Cathy. If I hadn't believed in you, I wouldn't have loved you at all. Now why don't you put on your dress and we'll go, okay? Cathy? Can we do that, please? Please?

Throw away my dreams This fight for my life Isn't dead and behind me And I've been told to scream When no one can hear me it doesn't mean nothing So make me believe Just take me away from this hell I've created And I'm afraid I'm breakin' my own vows Knowin' I'll go down in flames I know this can't be right There's got to be something more that I can live for And I can only hide Inside of this sickness for so long again So make me believe Just take me away from this hell I've created And I'm afraid I'm breakin my own vows Knowin' I'll go down Make me believe Just take me away from temptation that's calling me And I'm afraid I'm breakin' my own vows Knowin' I'll go down in flames Runnin' in circles Confusion is calling my name Hidin' inside of this poisoning madness again I'm tired, I'm broken, I'm walking along with the dead Will I ever feel like I once did? So make me Make me believe Just take me away from this hell I've created And I'm afraid I'm breakin' my own vows Knowin' I'll go down Make me believe Make me believe Make me believe I'm breakin' my own vows Knowin' I'll go down in flames
