- Songwriters: Toby Penner, Eldon Winter
Things never happen like I wish they could
Only in my dreams
I've never been willing to give up my heart
Or let myself believe
But I have been waiting all of my life
Just for tonight
And this time I'm hoping, holding out for you
To let me see the light
Make me a believer for once in my life
Right here and now
Touch me somehow
Let it be tonight, it's all on the line
I'm down on my knees
I don't know how but I'm ready to see
Clear every shadow of doubt in my mind
'Cause I want to believe
I've been sitting here staring at the rain
All alone tonight
Something about you is making me smile
With tears in my eyes
Maybe you've noticed, maybe you can tell
What's happening to me
When you say my name and touch my heart again
It's making me believe
Why can't this be one of the times
When I can see with open eyes
Shine your light
I'll never forget for the rest of my life
Make me a believer for once in my life
Right here and now
Touch me somehow
Let it be tonight, it's all on the line
I'm down on my knees
I don't know how but I'm ready to see
Clear every shadow of doubt in my mind
'Cause I want to believe
