Jim Ed Brown & Helen Cornelius – I’m A Born Believer Lyrics

Midnight tears about the dream
I began to feel like giving up again
Rude machines loves self esteem
We hope they’ve blown away now to end

Oh I’m a born believer (I’m a born believer)
For not believing you every day (every day)
Yeah I’m a born believer
And I believe we’re gonna find a way

Take my hand I’ll lift you up
I won’t let self pity drag me down
I’m your man and that’s enough
I’ll turn your hopes and attitudes around

Cause I’m a born believer (I’m a born believer)
And I believe in you every day (every day)
Yeah I’m a born believer
And I believe we’re gonna find a way

Repeat #2

I’ll keep on dreaming of what I wanna be
Just keep on dreaming and leave the rest to me
I’m a born believer (I’m a born believer)
And I believe in you every day (every day)
Yeah I’m a born believer
And I believe we’re gonna find a wayShine all your sweet love on me…
