I ain't got time for this man I'm out You should stop for awhile, you will find me standing by (Don't you trust me?) Over here at the side of your life (Not that I don't trust you) You spend all your hours just rushing around Do you have a little time to have a little time for me? As soon as I leave the house you wanna page me See you got me trapped I'm going crazy this is slavery You act like it's outrageous give me space it won't get better And maybe we will argue and be through with all these sorry letters Soon as I come home it's like I get the third degree Where ya been and who you with? I get no room to breathe It makes me wanna leave, I'm sick of these tricks up your sleeve Your suspicious I deceive give me grief without belief But to me, if you really trust me then it's pitiful Question me about my whereabouts that's so trivial Let me live my life and you can live yours Just be there to help me and support that's what your here for Not to give me stress and add to pressure Home is where I go the rest I go to pass the test I'm sorry if I left you all alone But I couldn't make it home so we argue on the phone, don't you trust me? You should stop for awhile, you will find me standing by (Don't you trust me?) Over here at the side of your life (Not that I don't trust you) You spend all your hours just rushing around Do you have a little time to have a little time for me? (Not that I don't trust you) Callin' up my house to hang it up you think that makes sense Tell me what it takes for us to shake so we can be friends It's time for us to take our separate paths We had a lot of laughs but the good things come to pass Let's think of the evil break don't make it scandalous Try to be mature 'til your sure that we can handle this Your sayin' I'm too busy I ignore you I guess you didn't hear me when I said that I cared for you But now it seems the arguments are nightly I wanna hold you tightly but instead you wanna fight me So why let it stress and aggravate me? Instead I'd rather break hope you don't hate me You tell me that you love me but your lyin' Fightin' back the urge to start cryin' I wipe away your tears come and hug me I love you like you love me, girl, don't you trust me? You should stop for awhile, you will find me standing by (Don't you trust me?) Over here at the side of your life (Not that I don't trust you) You spend all your hours just rushing around Do you have a little time to have a little time for me? (Not that I don't trust you) I hangup the phone, I can't barely hear you yellin' at me Maybe we should end it neither one of us are happy You know that I'm emotional you milk me Comin' over crying just to get me feelin' guilty You and me were met to be it yet You always wanna sweat and how much closer can we get, don't fret Just set me back my things and I'll be outie This time I'm breakin' out you let your mouth overcrowd me I can't take the beefin' and the griefin' I get no room to sleep I hope it ceases 'cause I'm leavin' Maybe next time you'll be a little more sure When I can give you more when you unsure But baby until then I gotta leave ya It's not that I don't need ya but see ya And I hope that you understand why I bust it Not becuase we rushed it, but girl don't you trust me? You should stop for awhile, you will find me standing by (Don't you trust me?) Over here at the side of your life (Not that I don't trust you) You spend all your hours just rushing around Do you have a little time to have a little time for me? Not that I don't trust you Don't you trust me? Not that I don't trust you Don't you trust me? Not that I don't trust you
