Letra I believe my own eyes Kim Wilde

I believe my own eyes

As performed in the musical tommy
With alistair robins as mr. walker
Written by pete townsend

Alistair: this cant continue
It makes no sense
Were getting nowhere
Ive lost all my confidence
The boy wants something
Unsatisfied
He needs attention
And care our love cant provide

And then, theres the matter of us

Id like to prove
That I dont think youve seen the best of me
Ive stood up for the boy
And Ive clung to the hopes and the lies

I wished that the pain in your gaze
Could again be a test of me
But when I look in the mirror
I believe my own eyes

I believe my own eyes
Now Ive come to the end
All my patience is gone
When Im doubtful I tend
To believe my own eyes

Kim: Id like to declare
This devotion and care is a life to live
That nothing has changed
And the time isnt passing us by
But I have to say here
That for us there is a clear-cut alternative
When we look at eachother
We believe our own eyes

Both: I believe my own eyes
Now Ive come to the end
All my patience is gone
When Im doubtful I tend
To believe my own eyes

This has gone far enough
After all weve been through
We can be brave
We done all we can humanly do
Its a time to be tough
A time to be wise
We must stop chasing our dreams and recover our lives

I believe my own eyes
Now Ive come to the end
All my patience is gone
When Im doubtful I tend
To believe...

Id like to believe
But I dont think that weve seen the best of us
And a way to believe is to see where the real future lies
I hope that the pain in your gaze can again be a test of me
And when I look in the mirror
I believe my own eyes

Lets believe our own eyes
No weve come to the end
All our patience is gone
Lets admit we intend to believe our own eyes

Kim: ... to believe our own eyes
