Do You Believe in Love Lyrics

[Verse]
I was walking down a one way street
Just a looking for someone to meet
One woman, who was looking for a man

Now I'm hoping (hoping) that the feeling is right
And I'm wondering (wondering) if you'll stay for the night
So I'm coming (I don't want to be lonely baby please tell me)
I want to love you all over

[Chorus]
Do you believe in love
Do you believe it's true
Do you believe in love
Oh you're making me believe it too

[Verse]
Now the feeling is beginning to grow
And the meaning is something you only know
If you believe it, take my hand and I'll take your heart
Come on
Now I'm wondering (wondering) where does true love begin
I'm going under (under) so I'm letting you in
My woman (I don't want to be lonely baby please tell me)
I want to love you all over

[Chorus]
(Do you believe in love)
Do you believe in love
(Do you believe it's true)
You believe it's true
(Do you believe in love)
Oh you're making me believe it too
[Bridge]
(I used to have you in a photograph)
I'm so glad it's changed
(But now I've got you and it's gonna last)
Do you believe in love

[Chorus]
(Do you believe in love)
(Do you believe it's true)
I'm so glad! I'm so glad!
(Do you believe in love)
Oh you're making me believe it too, girl

[Outro]
(Wee ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Do you believe in love?
(Wee ooh, ooh ooh, wee ooh)
Do you believe it's true?
(Wee ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Do you believe in love?
(Wee ooh, ooh ooh, wee ooh)
I believe in love too

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
