They ask me how I feel
And if my love is real
And how I know I'll make it through.
And they, they look at me and frown,
They'd like to drive me from this town,
They don't want me around
'Cause I believe in you.
They show me to the door,
They say don't come back no more
'Cause I don't be like they'd like me to,
And I walk out on my own
A thousand miles from home
But I don't feel alone
'Cause I believe in you.
I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter,
I believe in you even though we be apart.
I believe in you even on the morning after.
Oh, when the dawn is nearing
Oh, when the night is disappearing
Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart.
Don't let me drift too far,
Keep me where you are
Where I will always be renewed.
And that which you've given me today
Is worth more than I could pay
And no matter what they say
I believe in you.
I believe in you when winter turn to summer,
I believe in you when white turn to black,
I believe in you even though I be outnumbered.
Oh, though the earth may shake me
Oh, though my friends forsake me
Oh, even that couldn't make me go back.
Don't let me change my heart,
Keep me set apart
From all the plans they do pursue.
And I, I don't mind the pain
Don't mind the driving rain
I know I will sustain
'Cause I believe in you.

Here is what the maker of all this wrote: (a big thank you to him)
A LostChords compilation, 2006
"As for myself, I had nothing against pop songs [...] I loved songs like 'Without A Song', 'Ol' Man River', 'Stardust'
and hundreds of others"
Bob Dylan, Chronicles, p. 81
"Sinatra, Peggy Lee, yeah, I love all these people, but I tell you who I've really been listening to a lot lately -
in fact I'm thinking about recording one of his earlier songs - is Bing Crosby, I don't think you can find better
phrasing anywhere."
Bob Dylan, 1985 (Mikal Gilmore Interview)
This collection tries to show Bob Dylan's roots in Mainstream popular music, as opposed to Blues & Folk. I have included
covers - pre war Pop music, 50s ballads and crooner Country - as well as those of Dylan's own songs that are in one way
or another influenced by this music.
Two more volumes including covers like "Soon", "Answer Me", "More And More" as well as Dylan songs like "Floater",
"One More Night", "Tell Me that It Isn't True" etc. are in preparation.
Most of the information here is of course available elsewhere, I tried to put it all together in one place.
Many thanks to Stew in Scotland for creating the artwork!
