I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come to show the way
I believe, yes I believe

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Hey Joe, where d'ya find that purdy girly
Where'd ya get that jolly dolly
How'd ya rate that dish I wish was mine

Hey Joe, she's got skin that's creamy dreamy
Eyes that look so lovey dovey
Lips as red as cherry berry wine

Now listen Joe I aint no heel
But old buddy let me tell you how I feel
She's a honey she's a sugar pie
I'm warning you I'm gonna try
To steal her from you

Hey Joe, though we've been the best of friends
This is where that friendship ends
I gotta have that dolly for my own

Hey Joe come on lets be Buddy buddies
Show me you're my palsy walsy
Introduce that pretty little chick to me
Hey Joe, quit that waiting hesitating
Let me at her whats the matter
You're as slow as any joe can be

Now come on Joe
Lets make a deal
Let me dance with her to see if she is real
She's the cutest girl I've ever seen
I tell you face to face I mean to steal
Her from you

Hey Joe, we'll be friends until the end
But this looks like the end my friend
I gotta have that dolly for my own
I gotta have that dolly for my own

Answer me lord above
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose my love
Please answer me oh lord

She was mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray
Please answer me oh lord

If she's happier without me
Don't tell her I care
But if she still thinks about me
Please let her hear my prayer

Let her know I've been true
Send her back so we can start anew
In my sorrow may I turn to you
Please answer me oh lord

If she's happier without me
Don't tell her I care
But if she still thinks about me
Please let her hear my prayer

Let her know I've been true
Send her back so we can start anew
In my sorrow may I turn to you
Please answer me oh lord

A WOMAN IN LOVE - 19/10/1956
4 weeks at #1 - 21 weeks on chart

Your eyes are the eyes of a woman in love
And oh, how they give you away
Why try to deny you're a woman in love
When I know very well what they say
They say no moon in the sky
Ever lent such a glow
Some flame deep within made them shine
Those eyes are the eyes of a woman in love
And may they gaze ever more into mine
Crazily gaze ever more into mine

Those eyes are the eyes of a woman in love
And may they gaze ever more into mine
Crazily gaze ever more into mine
