- Not to be mistaken for the David A. Stewart produced song, "It's Okay".
Katy Perry - It's Okay To Believe
"It's Okay to Believe" is a song written by Katy Perry, Glen Ballard, and Matt Thiessen for Perry's unreleased album, (A) Katy Perry. This song is registered on Perry's ASCAP twice. Once as "It's Okay To Believe" and again as simply, "It's Okay".
A music video was shot for the song, but only a preview was released via Katy Perry's promo DVD in 2005. Parts of the video were shot in Paris, France. The clip was featured in the official trailer for Katy Perry: Part of Me, as well as the film itself.
Lyrics[]
This was big for us
Forever changing you and me
Allow me to be ambiguous
Though I can't stand ambiguity
I'll beat around this burning bush
Trying to put the fire out
When all the shoving came to push
The words just stayed stuck in my mouth
'Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone
Ba da da dum
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your life for someone, yeah
Ba da da dum
So we might lose
But I'm glad I didn't leave
I wear my soul on my shoes
If not my heart upon my sleeve
If I'm not allowed to speak aloud
Of what you really mean to me
Then'll type it bold when I spell it out
I T S L O V E
'Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone, yeah
Ba da da dum, oh, oh, oh
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your life for someone, yeah
Ba da da dum, oh
So why do I hesitate for my cocoon to break?
Second guess every move that I make
(Second guess every move that you make)
This was big for us
Changing you and me
'Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone, yeah
Oh, oh yeah
Oh, it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone, yeah
Ba da da dum
Oh, somebody tell me
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your life for someone, yeah
Ba da da dum
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
Yeah, yeah
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
Yeah, yeah
