Say it's only a paper moon, sailing over a covered tree, but it wouldn't be make -believe

if you'd believed in me.

Say it's only a canvas sky, hanging over a muslin tree, but it wouldn't be make -believe

if you'd believed in me.

Without your love, it's a honky -tonk parade.

Without your love, it's a melody played in a penny arcade.

It's a bonham and batty world, just as phony as it could be, but it wouldn't be make -believe

if you'd believed in me.

If you'd believed in me.

If you'd believed, believed!

If you'd believed.

If you'd believed, if you'd believed, if you'd believed in me.

Come on believe in me, come on believe.

Come on, come on, come on believe me, believe me.

Come on and believe in me

Don't , don't , don't, dont, dont.

Don't believe in me

Cause I am German

Don't believe in me

I'm really German

And don't believe in me

Don't , don't , don't, dont, don't believe in me

Cause I am German after all

Hey, believe, just believe, just believe in me,

because I'm German.

Just, just.

Don't believe in the dollars, believe in me.

Or in both, if you want.

That's fine, too.
