I Believed In You

On the road
To my home town
It all falls into view
Where I believed
That I belonged 
And I believed in you

And some may say
That I’ve been gone
Far too long to know
But deep inside
The flame still burns 
And I can’t let you go

They closed the works
And sent us home
They closed the whole place down
And something died
Deep down inside
Just like this dead old town

So I did drugs
And I did drink
Myself into the ground
And so began
My life of crime
Till the jury sent me down

And oh my love
It seems so sad
So little time to say so much
One sweet embrace 
For all that’s gone
Will have to be enough

Just hold me now
My sad sweet child
And try hard not to cry
Here in the darkness
One last time
To kiss and say goodbye

Down the road
From my home town
It all pours out of you
Cos you believed
That I belonged
And I believed in you
