I know it’s been a long time, since I called you last
Remember all those dreams that we had, the time went by so damn fast
You said I had to flaunt those girls I kept by my sides for kicks
You let the rumors fly, it’s nothing new
What those little boys will do to get their fix
You broke my heart when you said goodbye, bye, bye
You believed him when he told you a lie
Without your love baby I’m gonna die
Don’t you believe him (don’t you believe him)
He’s gonna fill you up with lies
Don’t you believe him darling, (don’t you believe him)
He’s gone too far this time
Since you left me baby, since you gone and stole my heart
I remember the very night that I broke down and fell apart
Girl you don’t remember, what I’m up here to be
Baby, baby don’t you know, you’re the biggest part of me
It broke my heart when you said good bye, bye, bye
You believed him when he told you a lie
Without your love baby I’m gonna die
Don’t you believe him (don’t you believe him)
He’s gonna fill you up with lies
Don’t you believe him darling, (don’t you believe him)
He’s gone too far this time
Broke my heart when you said goodbye, bye, bye
You believed him when he told you a lie
Without your love baby I’m gonna die
Don’t you believe him (don’t you believe him)
He’s gonna fill you up with lies
Don’t you believe him darling, (don’t you believe him)
He’s gone too far this time
Don’t you believe him, don’t you believe him
Don’t you believe him, don’t you believe him
Heartbreak and Mistrust: A Story Unfolds
“Don’t You Believe Him” by Bon Jovi is a poignant exploration of trust, heartbreak, and the lingering pain of lost love. The lyrics depict a narrator desperate to regain the trust of a former lover who has been swayed by damaging rumors and lies. The repeated plea, “Don’t you believe him,” highlights the singer’s struggle against falsehoods and his yearning for reconciliation. The emotional weight of the song is intensified by the confessions of regret and vulnerability, as the protagonist admits his own faults while asserting the depth of his feelings. The chorus amplifies the urgency, warning the beloved against the deceiver’s manipulation, and lays bare the raw emotion of someone on the verge of losing everything that matters.
