"I Believe You" is a love ballad composed by Don and Dick Addrisi which was 1977 single for Dorothy Moore; taken from the Dorothy Moore album, "I Believe You" reached #5 R&B and crossed over to the Pop Top 30 at #27. The track also reached #20 UK.
The song was recorded by the Carpenters and released as a single in June 1978. The decline in popularity suggested by the chart performance of the Carpenters' 1977 Passage album and its singles was punctuated by the failure of the "I Believe You" single to rise above a #68 peak and the group had no further releases for a three year period, June 1981 seeing the release of the album Made in America - which included "I Believe You" - and its single "Touch Me When We're Dancing".
"I Believe You" was also featured on the 1978 album Moods by Barbara Mandrell.
