Somethin' To Believe In Lyrics - Beneath The Velvet Sun - Shawn Mullins

I've never been the one 

Who had my head on straight 

So I gave myself this job 

Now I'm waitin' at the gate 

For my bag to be inspected 

For some crazy reason 

I am always suspected 

Of smugglin' somethin' through 

Like smoke or dope or airplane glue 

The sergeant waves me through 

And I know you've got something to believe in 

Down deep inside your soul 

Hey friend, don't you stop believin' 

In the dreams that you had 

When you were just a lad 

Bare down, take another town 

And station by storm 

Crank up the tunes beneath the full moon 

And the Carolina corn 

But don't let it pass you by 

'Cause someday you'll wake up 

Askin' yourself why 

You sat there at your desk 

Suckin' on a corporate breast 

You turned out like the rest 

And I know you've got something to believe in 

Down deep inside your soul 

Hey friend, don't you stop believin' 

In the dreams that you had 

When you were just a lad 

Hey you, check out the view 

Winding down the one 

Me and the miss sharin' bliss 

And soakin' up the sun 

And I feel like I've been resurrected 

In my lifetime I have 

Never felt protected 

And loved like I do 

When I am here with you 

Only you 

And I know you've got something to believe in 

Down deep inside your desperate soul 

Hey friend, don't you stop believin' 

In the dreams that you had 

In the dreams that we all had 

When you were just a lad
