Baby, Trust In Me

Lyrics to an imagined song. Inspired by Joe Bonamassa & Beth Hart's "I'll Take Care of You" Verse 1: We came together after we both were badly hurt. Your wife, she got a lawyer. It’s as if that greedy woman took right off your back your shirt! My love walked away from me after all I did to make him feel adored. Beyond my feeling hurt – the whole thing left me floored. Verse 2 I found you wandering one day looking hopeless on the street Our eyes met and mine locked on yours - eyes tinged with such sadness, but they are so sweet. You’ve told me all your heartache and I’ve told mine now to you. Let me show you what a woman’s care can do. Chorus: Baby, I see the tears you’re trying not to cry. Let those tears start flowing until they have run dry. Let me hold you. I’ll enfold you in my arms; you’ll see I can take away your pain. Baby, trust in me. Verse 3 It has been a short while now, and the hurting still is raw. We know each other very well, and we know each other’s every flaw. Love deepens. I feel your confidence I’m gaining. All that pain – I’ll see you through. Soon your hurting will be waning because I’m going to take such good care of you. Repeat Chorus: Baby I see the tears you're trying not to cry. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
