You Must Believe Me lyrics

You Must Believe Me
The Impressions
(Curtis Mayfield)

Chorus:
[2,3: And] you must belie-ie-ieve me
No matter what the people might say
You must belie-ie-ieve me
Darlin`, it just didn`t happen that way
No, no, it just didn`t happen that way

Verse 1:
You`ve come home with somethin` on your mind
Darlin`, tell me, why are you cryin`
You say be serious, no time for fun
While tryin` to tell me somethin` that I`ve done
The things you heard couldn`t be denied
But before your opinion, listen to my side

[repeat chorus]

[repeat intro]

(whoa, it`s all right)
(whoa, it`s all right)

Verse 2:

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

[repeat chorus]

[repeat intro to fade]

(whoa, it`s all right)
(whoa, it`s all right
