If only you believe like I believe, baby, like I believe,
We’d get by.
If only you believe in miracles, so would I.
If only you believe in miracles, so would I.
I might have to move heaven and earth to prove it to you, baby.
So we’re making love, you feel the power and I feel the power.
And there’s really nothing we can(’t) do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If we wanted to
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist on the stars, it was so easy.
(Oh Baby)
All we got to do is get a little faith in you.
Woah, I’ve been so many places I’ve seen some things (yes I have)
I know that love is the answer (yes it is)
Keeps holding this world together (oh yeah)
Ain’t nothing better? Ain’t nothing better?(Nothing’s better!)
And all the answers to our prayers,
Hell, it’s the same everywhere. (just the same now)
Nothing ever breaks up the heart(love’s a game now)
only your tears give you away (Ain’t it a shame now).
When you’re right where I found you(oh baby)
with my arms around you. (oh baby)
Baby, baby.
Love is a magic word if you ever find inner life
But from that very first look in your eyes
I see you and I have but one
heart.
Only our bodies were apart (it’s making me crazy)
That was so easy, so easy.
I had a taste of the real world (Just a drop of it)
When I went down on you, girl, oh.
I can hear windmills and rainbows whenever you talkin’ to me
(Never say never)
I feel like swirling and dancing whenever you walk in with me
You ripple like the river when I touch you (let me touch you)
Then I pluck your body like a string (show you what I mean)
Then I start dancing inside you (oh baby, a love song)
Oh baby in a love song, aw baby
Oh yeah, yeah, alright
Baby we’re sure doin’ it tonight
Every time you come by let me try (come on by)
Pretty please, with sugar on it, that’s how I like it, ugh.
I can’t even believe it with you
It’s like having every dream I ever wanted
(Dream of a lifetime) come true.
I picked up your vibes, you know (I’m having a fine time)
It opened my mind but I’m still dreaming.
Yeah
And you’re right where I found you, with my arms around you! (oh baby).
My favorite song of all time
Great song but wasn’t that Jefferson Starship that did that?
Great tune.
One of mine and DH’s all-time favorites. Sure brings back some incredibly wonderful memories!
That’s what happens when you ride the tiger.
Great song, didn’t Marty Balin do the singing?
Yes, in some ways he remained the "Grand Old Man" of the Bay Area Left, but he also stunned people from time to time by voicing pro-life (anti-abortion) principles. He commented on how people defend the baby whales and the seal pups, and then easily slide the other way to advocate the killing of their own young.
Paul Kantner was a psychedelics user in the 60's, but quit and later came out against drugs AND alcohol. Eventually, he'd been around enough years to realize that junk had killed the most promising people of his (our) generation.

Rest in peace, Paul. May the Lord give you a merciful judgment, clean you up and make you still quirky in His kingdom.
