You had the starring role that I wished I could play
So I learned every line that you were known to say
I stood in the shadows when the spotlight hit your face
But I never dreamed you'd throw it all away
After you'd take the stage you could do no wrong
And I was the first to cheer when you would start the song
I hid by the curtain and I softly sang along
But I never dreamed you'd throw it all away
You led me to believe
And I followed everything you'd say and do
You led me to believe
You've changed your way of thinking now
But I know what is true
And I will keep on holding to all the things
You led me to believe
You were the guiding light for all who passed your way
The neighborhood Superman who always saved the day
You were the model and I was the clay
And I never dreamed you'd throw it all away
You led me to believe
And I followed everything you'd say and do
You led me to believe
You've changed your way of thinking now
But I know what is true
And I will keep on holding to all the things
You led me to believe
Now I miss you everyday and it cuts me to the bone
But you have gone so far away that I must stand alone
I kept the things you taught to me
And I found them to be true
I only wished that you believed them too
You led me to believe
And I followed everything you'd say and do
You led me to believe
You've changed your way of thinking now
But I know what is true
And I will keep on holding to all the things
You led me to believe
