"That's What I Believe"

There's always one of the girls
That all the guys dream about
And you hold her in your heart
Imagining how you'll work it out
So you meet her every place you can devise
'Cause from the start you knew
The one she wants is you

You know it's right
When it comes as easy as apple pie
When you just can't do it wrong
She's going for everything you try
If she chose you over all those other guys
It must be luck or simply fate
But it's sure worth the wait

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe

I found the world in my arms
The moment I lost my heart
And the bond is much too strong
For anyone else to put apart
So I cherish every moment that she's near
You see the best things in your lives
If you just close your eyes

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe

And she maybe out there
Waiting just like you
'Cause at the strangest time and place
You'll find you're face to face

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe
