Something to Believe In Lyrics


There's a silver moon shining in the room
Where we sleep like spoons together
Lying in the dark, I can feel your heart
And it beats with mine foreverComing from the street, you can feel the heat
As the city sleeps in the silence
And the perfect light of a summer's night
Is broken by the violenceThen a woman screams and a baby cries
And someone's dream is shattered
When the nightmares dance before your eyes
They can leave you bruised and batteredThen I realize that I'm by your side
And I'm listening to you breathing
And in this room with the silver moon
You're something to believe inThere's a boy out there with a crazy stare
And a gun to make a living
In a sea of hate where you can't think straight
In a world that's unforgivingAnd it's all gone bad in a world gone mad
And you're scared that you'll discover
That the one you love and the one you trust

Is just like all the othersThen I realize that I'm by your side
And I'm listening to you breathing
And in this room with the silver moon
You're something to believe inYou're something to believe in
And in this room with the silver moon
You're something to believe in
And in this room with the silver moon
Mmm, something to believe inAnd in this room with the silver moon
Something to believe in
And in this room with the silver moon
Something to believe in

Mike & The Mechanics are an English rock/pop supergroup formed in 1985 as a side project of Mike Rutherford, one of the founding members of the band Genesis. The initial line-up for the band was Rutherford on bass, vocalists Paul Carrack and Paul Young, keyboardist Adrian Lee and drummer Peter Van Hooke. Following Young's death in 2000, the band took a break. In 2004, Paul Carrack became the band's sole lead vocalist until the band drifted apart in 2007. The band reformed in 2010 with new vocalists Andrew Roachford and Tim Howar.

Mike & The Mechanics debuted with their stellar eponymous album in 1985 which highlighted Rutherford's innovative guitar work and the vocal talents of the two Pauls, amongst other guest vocalists. Initially, the group's albums were released between Genesis albums, all three Genesis members having solo projects of their own, most notable in the huge chart success of singer/drummer Phil Collins. This ended with the disbanding of Genesis in 1998.

The classic song "The Living Years" from the album of the same name was to be the height of their critical success to date; the #1 single was written by and about the dissension between singer BA Robertson and his father, a situation that was never rectified prior to his father's death, sung with great passion by Carrack. The album also featured the song "Nobody's Perfect" which received considerable airtime as the music to a successful television advertising campaign for Tennants bitter. Their third album "Word Of Mouth" followed in 1991 with less commercial and critical success although the lead single, with vocals by Paul Young, reached the Top 20. The fourth album "Beggar on a Beach of Gold" was a high watermark in the quality of their material, with both the album and first single "Over My Shoulder" charting well with many considering the album the band's best work.

After a hiatus following Young's death from a heart attack on July 17, 2000, the band reformed in 2004 as Mike & The Mechanics featuring Paul Carrack releasing the album "Rewired".

A new Mike & the Mechanics album (titled "The Road") will be released in the spring of 2011, supported by a 22-date UK tour. Replacing Carrack and Young as vocalists for the group are Andrew Roachford and Canadian actor/singer Tim Hower.
