Believe It When I See It Lyrics - Long Player Late Bloomer - Ron Sexsmith

Whistling over trestles 

And past the graveyard sign 

We cast our wayward line 

Inside a wishing well 

We've just a wish and an empty vessel 

A hole to fill with days 

On a road where children stray 

Then pray there is no hell 

And as for heaven, well 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

This ain't no random shuffle 

There's reason in these rhymes 

A season and a time 

In a climate of fear and blood 

In the tavern two men did scuffle 

Their drunken battle moaned 

They groaned like cattle groan 

No diamonds here in the rough 

And as for peace and love 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

And when faced with a difficult decision 

Would you listen to your heart or mind 

We're bound to waste all our free will and ambition 

If we got no vision and we got no spine 

And as for peace of mind 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

If seeing 

If seeing is believing 

I'll believe it 

Believe it when I see it 

I'll believe it when I see it 

With my own two eyes 

See it with my own two eyes
