When You Believe - Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey

When You Believe

Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood

Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could


In this time of fear
When prayers so often proved in vain
Hope seemed like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I'm standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe

See they don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fears
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way straight through the rain
A small but still resilient voice
Says hope is very near

There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will ... somehow, somehow, somehow
You will when you believe
Just believe...in your heart ... Just believe

@saxomannn Sometimes I feel like disabling all the comments because some are REALLY negative & hurtful, but then people like U come along & prove to me & the world that there R still a lot of considerate & great people out there, & 4 that I wish 2 thank U. We need to learn how to treat EVERYONE with respect & give them a fair chance in life. This duet was done to make us happy, it certainly is NOT a contest & no one is trying to outdo anyone. Both are great legends. Sadly we're losing them1 by 1

@iluvsesshomaru09 When I first read your comment I thought you were saying that Whitney is not pretty, & I was thinking: what!?..Whitney truly was stunning. But then I re-read your comment & realized that's not what you were saying. I agree with you which is why I love "The Voice" because people are based on their talent & not their looks. I also agree with you on the anorexic-ly skinny, I think its ugly & a disease that needs 2 B addressed. Good health is what counts, everything else follows.

@mipelimexico I wish people with pretty voices like Whitney who are not very pretty could have a chance on stage and show their stuff. Maybe this world would change if we stopped believing that anorexic-ly skinny is pretty.

Mariah realizes Whitney outranked her. Mariah is a great singer and Diva, But...Lol...Whitney was the voice. End of story RIP Whitney. WE LOOKED TO YOU

[dazjah00]

LOL Whitney was out-singing Mariah.

[roselandalvin]

Houston 8+ years past her prime here...Too bad

[HideTheGoods]

Just simply AMAZING!

This is the equivalent of Ella Fitzgerald & Sara Vaughn sharing the stage! If you don't know them, look 'em up! R.I.P. Whitney & I LOVE you Mariah... always!
