What We Want To Believe In Lyrics - The Catherine Wheel

She was my sunlight 

She made my skin glow 

She had these bow legs 

I didn't want her to go 

Blue skies were turning red 

Learned my grade the hard way 

She loved me or so she said 

So I say 

We all believe 

What we want to believe in 

We like to dream 

What we want to believe in 

This is the real thing 

I stretched her dress tight 

I cut her hair low 

I made her speak right 

I didn't want her to go 

Grey skies beneath my feet 

I slipped on truth the hard way 

She preferred herself to me 

So I say 

We all believe 

What we want to believe in 

We like to dream 

And we want to believe it 

So we all believe 

What we want to believe in 

This is the real thing so dance 

Every woman and man 

In cloud cuckoo land
