#27 I Believe- Stevie Wonder

I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever.

At what point in a relationship do you bust out the above line? Is this just a tactic Stevie is using to avoid telling a girl that he loves her? “I’m not in love with you, but I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever.” That should get him off her back for a couple more months.

I Believe Meaning
Stevie

That’s kind of tongue-in-cheek, it is clear “I Believe” is meant to be a love song, but the practicality of the lyrics don’t really add up. However, the sentiment is there. Wonder states, before he met this girl he was a shell of his full self. Years of shattered dreams felt like a wasted life and he felt empty inside. Having met this new girl, he is more hopeful.

The song is produced well and Stevie’s vocals sound superb. He uses a variety of instruments to achieve this sound, but the song relies heavily on the bass and percussion for its unique sound. Of course, the background singers play such a huge part in helping to create the sound of this song.

I Believe Lyrics

Shattered dreams, worthless years,
Here am I encased inside a hollow shell,
Life began, then was done,
Now I stare into a cold and empty well.

The many sounds that meet our ears, the sights our eyes behold,
Will open up our merging hearts,
And feed our empty souls.

I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.

Without despair we will share,
And the joys of caring will not be replaced,
What has been must never end
And with the strength we have won’t be erased,
When the truths of love are planted firm,
They won’t be hard to find,
And the words of love I speak to you will echo in my mind.

I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.

I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever.

I’m so glad that I found someone to believe in again,
I’m so glad that I found someone to believe in again.

God surely answered my prayer,
God surely answered by prayer,
You know God surely answered my prayer,
You know God surely answered my prayer,
God always will answer your prayers,
Believe in one who will answer my prayer,
Thank you God.

Come on, let’s fall in love,
You’re the woman I’ve been waiting for,
Come on, let’s fall in love,
You’re the girl that I really adore,
Come on, let’s fall in love.
