They Won't Believe Me

Everyday, I show you

but now that I know you,

I know they won't believe me.

Cause, when I'm done,

they'll seem to shun

the love that I show you.

They won't understand

when I hold your hand,

even if for just a while.

When I say that I love you,

and tell you it's true,

I know they won't believe me.

The front that I show,

even if you know,

tells them all they need.

I shouldn't expect

them to ever suspect

that my feeling are real.

But, then evidence points

to a love that disappoints

to the bitter end.

So how can I show you

that I truly love you

when I know they won't believe me?

But you take my hand,

and then you make me stand

for we both know what we feel.

You tell me these things,

and all that it brings,

to make me see.

Because, when we're together

it will never matter

that they won't believe me.
