I'll Believe It When I See It - Gilbert O'Sullivan

You gave your love so tenderly

Said there could be no one hut for me

And all the time you had it planned

To spend your weekend with another man

What kind of love do you call this

I cannot live my life on promises

You say your lesson has been learned

It’s over now as far as you’re concerned;

Well I’ll believe it when I see it

I’ll believe it when I see it

If I can’t have you when I want to

I might just as well be dead

I don’t think I can live my life

Sharing you with someone else

You told our children on the phone

How much you hated leaving them alone

Yet for the past few weeks or so

You never phoned them just to say hello;

You disappointed me so much

Does it surprise you that I bear a grudge

In Spite of promises you broke

You still insist that there 5 a ray of hope

Well I’ll believe it when I see it

I’ll believe it when I see it

If we can’t survive and live our lives

The way we both intended to

We might just as well stop right now

What good would going on do;

I’ll believe it when I see it

Oh, you know I try to understand

I’ll believe it when I see it

'Cos that’s the kind of man I am

If I can’t have you, when I want to

Oh when I want to, I just might as well be dead

Oh, I might just as well be dead, I don’t think that I can live my life

Sharing you with someone else;

I’ll believe it when I see it

Baby, baby, what else can I do, I’ll believe it when I see it

You don’t know how much I’m in love with you

If we can’t survive and live our lives

The way we both intended to

We might just as well stop right now

What good would going on do;
