aawwwww  Confusedad:

did they not have their own sitcom on TV in the 70s?

love this song.....
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Oh, love was out to get me (duh-duh, duh-duh)
That's the way it seems (duh-duh, duh-duh)
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer.
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love (oh, yeah)
I'm a believer,
I couldn't leave her if I tried

I thought love was more or less a given thing
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
Oh, what's the use in trying (duh-duh, duh-duh)
All you get is pain (duh-duh, duh-duh)
When I needed sunshine I got rain

Chorus
Yes I saw her face,
Now I'm a believer.
No not a trace
Of doubt in my mind.
Said I'm a believer, yeah yeah....
