Believe Ohhhh Believe... Don't be sad Cause it can't be that bad There's nothing to fear Your broken heart will mend And new love will come to you, shining through Look, look at the stars And you've got to visualize There's someone to heal your heart I know it's really true I know they are waiting Baby, waiting only, only for you Just have faith, keep your head up And won't you go for it Believe in your dreams Cause you can make them come true Just let yourself go You've got to believe That happy times will come, just wait and see Please just remember When you're feeling down and blue There is some who, wishing for Someone just like you Believe in your dreams The world is waiting for you It's all up to you You've got to believe It will be okay, another day Believe in your dreams Life is not what it seems Just try to believe Just make up your mind Love will take you there, take you there

Song Production Information
NAOKI
I wrote this Eurobeat song after passing some kind of milestone.
During its production process, I often felt similar feelings to the time I worked on CAN'T STOP FALL'IN IN LOVE, and I completed this sorrowful, intense Eurobeat song after a long time... I was convinced of it. The vocalist who has the greatest compatibility with my Eurobeat sound is still Paula Terry.
As usual, I can't separate myself from Paula Terry's singing and magical lyrics.
By the way, the song title named "MARIA" can be compared to my current "feelings" in words.
Video Production Information
F-FLY
With NAOKI's explosive melodies, his NAOKI-world songs are pleasant and suited for sound games, right?
Personally, I like NAOKI's songs because they're easy to play.
(But I can only clear them on LIGHT7, how embarrassing)
