If I believed in paradise
I'd swear I must be there
I'd swear I must be there right now with you
If I believed in miracles
I'd know that one was happening to me
But if I don't believe in paradise
And miracles aren't real
Then someone tell me
What is this I feel
I wanna believe it's love this time
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
But with you I can't deny
That if I believed in paradise
I'd swear I'm there
If I believed in magic spells
It all would be so clear
A magic spell must have brought you here
If I could see the future
I'd see if you and I were meant to be
But I don't know any magic
And tomorrow's just a dream
Then something in this fantasy is real
(repeat chorus)
I wanna believe it's love this time
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
I wanna believe it's love
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
But with you I can't deny
That if I believed in paradise
I'd swear I'm there
I'm there
I'm there
If I believed
I'd swear I must be there
I'd swear I must be there right now with you
If I believed in miracles
I'd know that one was happening to me
But if I don't believe in paradise
And miracles aren't real
Then someone tell me
What is this I feel
I wanna believe it's love this time
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
But with you I can't deny
That if I believed in paradise
I'd swear I'm there
If I believed in magic spells
It all would be so clear
A magic spell must have brought you here
If I could see the future
I'd see if you and I were meant to be
But I don't know any magic
And tomorrow's just a dream
Then something in this fantasy is real
(repeat chorus)
I wanna believe it's love this time
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
I wanna believe it's love
I wanna believe my heart's not telling me a lie
But with you I can't deny
That if I believed in paradise
I'd swear I'm there
I'm there
I'm there
If I believed
