I don't believe in superstars,
organic food and foreign cars.
I don't believe the price of gold,
the certainty of growing old,
That right is right and left is wrong,
that north and south can't get along,
That east is east and west is west
and being first is always best.
But I believe in love, I believe in babies,
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
Well I don't believe that heaven waits
for only those who congregate.
I like to think of God as love,
he's down below, he's up above.
He's watching people ev'rywhere,
he knows who does and doesn't care.
And I'm an ordinary man,
sometimes I wonder who I am.
But I believe in love, I believe in music,
I believe in magic, and I believe in you.
I know with all my certainty
what's goin' on with you and me is a good thing.
It's true, I believe in you.
I don't believe virginity
is as common as it used to be,
In working days and sleeping nights,
that black is black and white is white,
That Superman and Robin Hood
are still alive in Hollywood,
That gasoline's in short supply,
the rising cost of getting by.
But I believe in love, I believe in old folks,
I believe in children, I believe in you.
I believe in love, I believe in babies,
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
