[Part I: Believe in Humanity]

[Verse 1]
Ah, if you read the papers you may see
History in the making
You'll read what they say life is all about
They say it's there for the taking
Yeah, but you should really check it out
If you want to know what's shaking

[Chorus]
But don't tell me about the things you've heard
Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

[Verse 2]
I know it's often true—sad to say
We have been unkind to one another
Tell me how many times has the golden rule
Been applied by man to his brother
Well I believe if I really looked at what's going on
I would lose faith I never could recover

[Chorus]
So don't tell me about the things you've heard
Ah, maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm living
With my head in the sand
I just want to see people giving
I want to believe in my fellow man
Yes, I want to believe

[Instrumental]

[Part II: Fantasy End]

[Verse]
Now that I've expressed my soul
I'll step back into my real-life role
And hope I've brought you back across the line
You may think there's nothing you can do
To change what's all too true
But all you have to do is use your mind

[Chorus]
In fantasy you can be anything you want to be
And someday our reality will be as good as never never land
