Roland (The songs writer) felt the album version of the song was not personal enough, and therefore decided to record a live version of it while on The Big Chair in 1985, this would become the soulful re-recording. Curt Smith (the other half of Tears For Fears) found that the album version was great...
[Verse 1]
I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, oh, yes we will be strong, yeah
And I believe that if I’m crying while I write these words
Is it absurd or am I being real?
[Verse 2]
I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for
They would just pour like every drop of rain
That's why I believe it is too late
For anyone to believe
[Verse 3]
I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time
You would not resign yourself, resign yourself to your fate, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine
I can't deny that I’m a Virgo too
[Verse 4]
I believe that if you're bristling while you hear this song
If you're bristling, if you're bristling while you hear this song
I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve?
I could be wrong or have I, have I hit a nerve, hit a nerve?
That's why I believe it is too late
That's why I believe
For anyone to believe
"William!"
[Interlude - Sax Solo]
[Verse 5]
I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness
In the night time, in the storm, in the casino
Casino Spanish eyes
[Verse 6]
And I believe, no I can't believe
That every time you hear a newborn scream
You just can't see the shaping of a life
The shaping of a life
[Outro]
It's too late baby now, it's too late
Yeah
