SHREK - I m a believer by Smash mouth
The Lyrics for the song is as follows:
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me, thats the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
And then I saw her face
Now Im a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Im in love
Im a believer
I couldnt leave her if I tried
I thought love was more or less a giving thing
More I gave the less I've got, oh yeah
Whats the use in trying, all you get is pain
When I wanted sunshine I got rain
And then I saw her face
Now Im a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Im in love
Im a believer
I couldnt leave her if I tried
Whats the use in trying, all you get is pain
When I wanted sunshine I got rain
And then I saw her face
Now Im a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Im in love
Im a believer
I couldnt leave her if I tried
Then I saw her face
Now Im a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Now Im a believer,
yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah
Now Im a believer
(then I saw her face)
Now Im a believer
(not a trace, of doubt in my mind)
I'm a believer
(Now I'm a believer...)
"I'm a Believer" is a song by Neil Diamond and recorded by 'The Monkees' in 1966 with the lead vocal by 'Micky Dolenz'. Because of advance orders, over 1,051,280, it went gold within two days of release. It was produced by Jeff Barry and hit the number one spot on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart on December 31, 1966 and remained there for seven weeks, becoming the biggest-selling record for all of 1967, and one of the biggest of all time. The song became Billboard's top single of the year and kept the novelty smash, "Snoopy & the Red Baron" by The Royal Guardsmen, at number two for four weeks. Neil Diamond had already recorded this song before it was covered by the Monkees, and it still sometimes appears in his live concerts. Neil Diamond also suggested it to The Fifth Estate (band) who recorded it as a 1967 album cut in follow up to their smash hit Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead. This song was later covered by Smash Mouth and Eddie Murphy in 2001, as part of the soundtrack to the movie Shrek (the band also released the song on its self-titled album). Eddie Murphy, portraying the character "Donkey", also performed a rendition of the song in the film.
