You Must Believe Me

(album: ...And I Know You Wanna Dance - 1966)

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
