There’s no chance I’m going to buy that!
There isn’t a glimmer of hope.
You must think I’m some kind of idiot
Do you think I’m a fool or what?
There’s no chance I’ll ever believe you
Not the least glimmer of hope.
Tell me again that you mean it.
Don’t tell me lies; don’t be cruel.
I wish that I could believe it
See even a glimmer of truth
Maybe, just maybe you mean it
I’m starting to believe you a bit.
Just this once I’ll trust you
Hope there’s a glimmer of truth
I find it hard to believe you
But I’m clutching a glimmer of hope.
