Curtis Mayfield - You Must Believe Me lyrics

You must believe me No matter what the people might say You must believe me Darling it just didn't happen that way No, no it just didn't happen that way You've come home with something on your mind Darling, tell me, why are you crying? You say, "Be serious," no time for fun While trying to tell me, something that I've done The things you heard couldn't be denied But before your opinion, listen to my side And you must believe me No matter what the people might say You must believe me Darling it just didn't happen that way No, no it just didn't happen that way Whoa, it's alright Whoa, it's alright Girl, you're wrong to believe what was said For you see nothing could ever be that bad Though the talk is now all over town Darling, you know I'd never put you down True, her and me were at the party as guests There's nothing else to say about whom I love best And you must believe me No matter what the people might say You must believe me Darling it just didn't happen that way No, no it just didn't happen that way Whoa, it's alright Whoa, it's alright Whoa, it's alright Whoa, it's alright
