Believe Lyrics by Savatage

Streets: A Rock Opera (Narrated Version)

1991

So after all these one night stands
You've ended up with heart in hand
A child alone, on your own
Retreating

Regretful for the things you're not
And all dreams you haven't got
Without a home, a heart of stone
Lies bleeding

And for all the roads you followed
And for all you did not find
And for all the things you had to leave behind

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams

Don't turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there
I'll never leave
All I ask of you is believe

Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
For bits of string, grown-up wings
You needed

But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in and pay for sins
Repeated

And for all the years you borrowed
And for all the tears you cried
And for all the fears you had to keep inside, yeah

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams

Don't turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there
I'll never leave
And all I ask of you is believe, yeah

I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time
Till time wasted me

Never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
'Cause the person I am
Are the parts that I play

So I plot and I plan
Hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams

And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can't pay, yeah

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams

Don't turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there
I'll never leave
All I ask of you is believe
