Lyric Pick

"Do You Believe Me Now" by Jimmy Wayne




Do you remember
the day I turned to you and said
I didn't like the way he was lookin' at you?
yeah
How he made you laugh
you just couldn't get what I was sayin'
it was my imagination

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Every time the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?

I'm kickin' myself
for bein' the one foolish enough givin' him the chance to step in my shoes
ohhh
He was bidin' his time
when he saw our love was havin' a moment of weakness
he was there between us

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Every time the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?

oh yeah, I bet now you see the light
oh yeah, what's the use in bein' right...
when I'm the lonely one tonight?

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Every time the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now
yeah
so do you believe me now
yeah

Everytime the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?



The song is basically about a guy and his girlfriend; he is telling her another guy likes her and she doesn't think he does. When they have a weak moment in their relationship, the other guy moves in. The guy then says to his girlfriend, so do you believe me now, and that he wasn't really that crazy and how he knew what he was talking about because the other guy is now with her.


"He was bidin' his time when he saw our love was havin' a moment of weakness he was there between us " - He had his eyes on her, and waited until they were fighting and then made his move.

"How he made you laugh you just couldn't get what I was sayin' it was my imagination "- She thought he was being nice and that her boyfriend was making up things saying it was his imagination.

"I'm kickin' myself for bein' the one foolish enough givin' him the chance to step in my shoes" - He is mad and feels regret for pushing his first impression thoughts aside. He wishes he hadn't been foolish and gone with his instincts.

"oh yeah, I bet now you see the light oh yeah, what's the use in bein' right... when I'm the lonely one tonight?" -It's not about being right anymore after the destruction of their relationship, nothing matters to him now. He is lost without her.

"so do you believe me now?" - He could now be asking his girlfriend this question, does she believe him now? If she had believed him would she still be with him? What does she think now that she is with the other guy?
