Baby, don't believe it
Verse 1
Baby, don't believe it, oh, it's in your eyes
I can see the weakness you don't have to hide
I can take you under, under my wing
'Cause your voice gives me a song that I love to sing
Chorus 1
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Don't give up, baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing
Verse 2
same as 1st verse)
You were just a child, ready to explore
And everything you saw looked like an open door
A place you can remember, you'd love to go back
But you can't even comprehend that it's all in the past
Chorus 2
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it oh, it's good for nothing
Bridge
Put your heart in my hands and I won't hurt you
Put your heart in my hands, I promise not to
Put your heart in my hands, I'll lift you up, you'll fly away
Fly away, lift you up
Chorus 1
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Don't give up, baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing
Chorus 3
I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Baby, just believe it, baby just believe it, oh it's good for something
I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Oh it's good for nothing, I love you the way you are
