Dooo-do, dooo-do, dooo-do, doo-do, doooooo
Doo-do, doo-do, doo-do, dooooo

I couldn't wish you any bad
I only miss the many highs we had
Our problems made it hard to smile
But I still loved you all the while

I can't deny that times have changed
I only wish we could have rearranged it
We were the pawns in someone else's game

Keep believin', you can make it now
Keep believin', you can work it out
Keep believin', you can make it now

I know the pace was rather slow
But I was not the one to run the show
Our problems made it hard to talk
Slowing our run down to a walk

I would have liked for things to last
But now I know the time has floated past
We were the thorns and we became the pain

Keep believin', you can find a way
Keep believin', you can find the day
Keep believin', you can make it stay

If you need to blame somebody
You can blame it all on me
Just believe and you will see
Just believe what you will see

I can't deny that times have changed
I only wish we could have rearranged it
We were the pawns in someone else's game

Keep believin', you can make it now
Keep believin', you can work it out
Keep believin', you can make it now

Dooo-do, dooo-do, dooo-do, doo-do, doooooo
Dooo-do, dooo-do, dooo-do, doo-do, doooooo
Dooo-do, dooo-do, dooo-do, doo-do, doooooo
Doo-do, doo-do, doo-do, doooooo.
