Reason To Believe

Marianne Faithfull · Stranger On Earth: Introduction To Marianne Faith [2008]

If I listened long enough to you

I'd find a way to believe that it's all true

Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried.

Still I look to find a reason to believe.

Someone like you makes it hard to live

Without somebody else.

Someone like you makes it easy to give,

Never thinking of myself.

If I gave you time to change my mind

I'd find a way to leave the past behind



Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried.

Still I look to find a reason to believe.

Someone like you makes it hard to live

Without somebody else.

Someone like you makes it easy to give,

Never thinking of myself.

If I gave you time to change my mind

I'd find a way to leave the past behind

Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried.

Still I look to find reason to believe.
