Summary: A soothing song, liked it the first time I heard it. Its about her lover whom she believes more than herself.

Lyrics:

When you’re sleeping, I watch you for hours
Feels like reading
Or gazing at stars
Never touch you, no
Just waiting for one to fall to Earth
Brighten up my empty world

‘Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
You make it better
You keep on coming through
So much, I don’t believe it
But I believe in you

Heroes win
But sometimes they fail
Some people can’t believe it
But I need you human anyway
Nothing less
I want my star to fall to Earth
It’s where we love; it’s where we hurt

‘Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
You make it better
You keep on coming through
So much, I don’t believe it
But I believe in you

(You make it better, baby)
You make it better, baby

I believe in you
(You make it better, baby)

You make it better
You keep on coming through
So much, I don’t believe it
But I believe in you

Interpretation:

When you’re sleeping, I watch you for hours
Feels like reading
Or gazing at stars
Never touch you, no
Just waiting for one to fall to Earth
Brighten up my empty world

‘Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
You make it better
You keep on coming through
So much, I don’t believe it
But I believe in you
Falling for the person she loves time and again, believes the other person
so much that though she feels eternity is not enough to comprehend him, she
still trusts in him. Waiting for that person to awaken from slumber and
take her home to her happy place away from the world of misery and pain.

Brightening up her life every hour beating all the odds and proving her
faith is in the right place. Unbelievable things are made to believe through
him.

The movie Johnny English Reborn is almost the complete depiction of this song.

The story between Rowan and Rosamund is like the core of this song.

Heroes win
But sometimes they fail
Some people can’t believe it
But I need you human anyway
Nothing less
I want my star to fall to Earth
It’s where we love; it’s where we hurt
People fail, its part of human nature. It is ok to fail and let go, because
that is what makes us human. To better ourselves and to soak up the
experiences to create something new. She longs to see the human side of him
she wants to give back the love and help him heal when he is hurt. She does
not seek bad things to happen, but that even if it happens she is always
there to brigten up his day and help him get up.
