lyrics

There’s a broken rhyme
In a tinhorn band
There’s a car-crash poet
With a rose in hand
Could you believe in me?
Would you believe in me?

There’s halting faith
In a broken prayer
There’s a ship-wrecked preacher
In a Merlin chair
Could you believe in me?
Would you believe in me?

If I’m the only one to care…

I'm ready for the beat,
I'm ready for the song
I'm ready for the melody, the energy
That might just happen along

I'm ready for the line,
I'm ready for the craic
I'm ready for the songs you sing,
The noise you bring
For to take me back
Come on, take me back

There’s a paper heart
From a broken tree
On Gingerbread looking
For a place to be
Could you believe in me?
Would you believe in me?
There’s no middle path
In this muddled-age
Just a bottle-full of words
For this fading page
Could you believe in me
Would you believe in me?

If I’m the only one to care…

I'm ready for the beat,
I'm ready for the song
I'm ready for the melody, the energy
That might just happen along

I'm ready for the line,
I'm ready for the craic
I'm ready for the songs you sing,
The noise you bring
For to take me back
Come on, take me back

Would you believe in me?
