[Verse 1]
A cupid on the go
No arrow and no bow
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I thought you'd gone for good
I hadn't understood
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Rushing like the sea
You've come back to me
[Chorus]
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
[Verse 2]
The maker of a dream
The lead in every scene
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I need it to survive
Without you I would die
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Rushing like the sea
You've come back to me
Now I'm saying
[Chorus]
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
[Bridge]
Dreaming
I'm dreaming of the now
Hold me now
Don't leave now
[Chorus]
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now
I'm a believer, I'm a believer, I'm a believer
In you now

Alison commented on the song on Twitter during the lead-up to the release of The Singles:
After “Shiny and Warm” this has been my favourite song to perform live from the Head First album. The band always really liked playing the song, especially Angie.
