It's Nice to Believe

Softly, so sweetly, I soak in the skin

Painting light on the morning

The tableside lamp isn't working

Silently, sweetly, I soak in the syrup

Of sweat and revival

Your body is quite like the Bible

I read it and throw it away before day

It's nice to believe in something

Man, in my bedroom

There lives your true love down in Santa Fe

I know I'm just warming her place

So I go walking towards Chinatown

And hoping I'll pass a familiar face

We'd talk about the long day

And I'd feel like I had a friend

Till the conversation came to an end

It's nice to believe in something

There's a car alarm beeping

A symphony is steeping in harsh city sounds

To the music I'll always be bound

But what is a song without love lasting longingly

Through every chord

It's indulgence, strung out and bored

But I play 'cause I have the choice

Like there's worth in the sound of my voice

It's nice to believe in something

It's nice to believe in something
