Don't it make you crazy
If you're anything like me
When the only answer given
Is "You gotta just believe"
Call it skepticism
I'm a realist at best
And if I'm ever gonna try it
Well it's gotta pass the test
But I can't help but wonder
If I ever let my pride
Doubt the easy answers
And cover up what's right
'Cause when you look up
At the night
At all the stars
That fill the sky
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
All the universe displays
A love that cannot be explained
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
When you open your heart
You'll see
You just gotta believe
Gotta believe
With words as ammunition
We battle to persuade
But you can't save a life
By winning a debate
The truth is very simple
And it's nothing we create
A child could see the evidence
And that's all he needs for faith
'Cause when you look up
At the night
At all the stars
That fill the sky
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
All the universe displays
A love that cannot be explained
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
When you open your heart
You'll see
You just gotta believe
In something bigger than your
Mind will ever comprehend
'Cause you weren't made
To understand it all
'Cause when you look up
At the night
At all the stars
That fill the sky
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
All the universe displays
A love that cannot be explained
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
When you open your heart
You'll see
You just gotta believe
You just gotta believe
