  • I could tell you I was fragile
    I could tell you I was weak
    I could write you out a letter
    To tell you anything you need
    I've seen minutes turn to hours
    Hours turn to years
    And I've seen truth turn to power

    If you could see me the way I see you
    If you could feel me the way I feel you
    You'd be a believer
    You'd be a believer

    Minutes turn to hours
    Hours turn to years
    And I've seen truth turn to power

    I could tell you I was ageless
    But I know you see the light
    I could tell you I'm immune to everything
    But that's a lie
    Dust don't turn to flowers
    Skies don't disappear
    But I've seen truth to power

    Oh, if you could see me the way I see you
    If you could feel me the way I feel you
    You'd be a believer (believer)
    You'd be a believer (believer)
    You'd be a believer (believer)
    You'd be a believer (believer)

    Hard to keep goin' on (hard to keep goin' on)
    I said it's hard to keep goin' on (hard to keep goin' on)
    It's hard to keep goin' on (hard to keep goin' on)

    If you could see me the way I see you
    If you could feel me the way I feel you
    You'd be a believer
    You'd be a believer
    You'd be a believer
    Be a believer
    Be a believer (believer)
    You'd be (be a believer)

    Minutes turn to hours
    Hours turn to years
    And I've seen truth turn to power Writer/s: RYAN B TEDDER, T BONE BURNETT
