The Last 5 Years movie - If I Didn't Believe in You lyrics
rate me<br>
JAMIE<br>
Okay, stop<br>
Cathy, stop<br>
Listen to me<br>
<br>
There are people<br>
And they are publishing my book<br>
And there's a party that they're throwing<br>
And while you've made it very clear that you're not going<br>
I will be going<br>
And that's done<br>
<br>
But what's it really about?<br>
Is it really about a party, Cathy?<br>
Can we please for a minute stop blaming<br>
And say what you feel?<br>
Is it just that you're disappointed<br>
To be touring again for the summer?<br>
Did you think this would all be much easier<br>
Than it's turned out to be?<br>
Well, then talk to me, Cathy<br>
Talk to me<br>
<br>
If I didn't believe in you<br>
We'd never have gotten this far<br>
If I didn't believe in you<br>
And all of the ten thousand women you are<br>
If I didn't think you could do<br>
Anything you ever wanted to<br>
If I wasn't certain that you'd come through somehow<br>
THe fact of the matter is, Cathy<br>
I wouldn't be standing here now<br>
<br>
If I didn't believe in you<br>
We wouldn't be having this fight<br>
If I didn't believe in you<br>
I'd walk out the door and say,<br>
"Cathy, you're right"<br>
But I never could let that go<br>
Knowing the things about you I know<br>
Things, when I met you four years ago, I knew<br>
It never took much convincing<br>
To make me believe in you<br>
<br>
Don't we get to be happy, Cathy?<br>
At some point down the line<br>
<br>
Don't we get to relax?<br>
Without some new tsuris<br>
To push me yet further from you?<br>
If I'm cheering on your side, Cathy<br>
Why can't you support mine?<br>
Why do I have to feel<br>
I've committed some felony<br>
Doing what I always swore I would do?<br>
<br>
I don't want you to hurt<br>
I don't want you to sink<br>
But you know what I think?<br>
I think you'll be fine!<br>
Just hang on and you'll see-<br>
But don't make me wait till you do<br>
To be happy with you<br>
Will you listen to me?<br>
No one can give you courage<br>
No one can thicken your skin<br>
I will not fail so you can be comfortable, Cathy<br>
I will not lose because you can't win<br>
<br>
If I didn't believe in your<br>
Then here's where the travelogue ends<br>
If I didn't believe in you<br>
I couldn't have stood before all of our friends<br>
And said, "This is the life I choose-<br>
This is the thing I can't bear to lose<br>
Trip us or trap us, but we refuse to fall"<br>
That's what I thought we agreed on, Cathy<br>
If I hadn't believed in you<br>
I wouldn't have loved you at all<br>
<br>
Now why don't you put your dress on and we'll go, okay?<br>
Cathy?<br>
Can we just do that please?<br>
Please?!<br>
<br>
