Elvis Costello
If I Could Believe
[Chorus]
If I could believe
Two and two is five
Two wrongs make a right
Well then, man alive

Lost in my insolence and sneers
That might sound like prayers
If I could believe

[Verse]
If I could believe
You were from heaven sent
Then just losing you
Would be my punishment

But in the hour of disgrace
I might see his face
If I could believe

If I could believe then I know I might
Sleep all through the night
But how many times must I wake in fright
Nagging doubts still tugging on my sleeve

[Chorus]
If I could believe
Two and two is five
Two wrongs make a right
Well then, man alive
Lost in my insolence and sneers
That might sound like prayers
If I could believe

[Outro]
If I could believe
If I could believe
