Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Verse 1]
Been saying lately it's a waste of time
You got your problems babe and I got mine
I no that now we don't see eye to eye
You got your problems but until we try
Don't give it up, don't mess it up, don't play with out love baby
Don't rip it up, don't tear it up, don't play with our love GIRL
[Chorus]
Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me
All you got to do is
Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me
All you got to is

I know baby you want piece of mind
You got your problems babe but I got mine
Right, haven't been seein' clear and been actin' blind
You got your problems but until we try

Don't give it up, don't mess it up, don't play with our love
Don't rip it up, don't tear it up, don't play with our love girl!

[Chorus]
Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me
All you got to do is
Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me

I know we been hurting girl that's true
But maybe we can talk the whole thing threw
It's times like this I no we got to prove
Baby girl I'm so in love with you girl!

[Verse 2]
I know we both need to release
But if Ludacris and people start disturbing the peace
Hands and blinds nosey neighbors peeping through the crease
Next thing you no they be calling the police and that ever we need
So I suggest we just chill come pack our bags and take a flight to Brazil
I think that will be ideal and you no we can do what ever feel
Cause I don't want to loose you for real, so girl!

[Chorus]
Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me
All you got to do is




Girl trust me, girl trust me, girl trust me
All you got to is

Back in 1999…😎 I used to blast this out of my campus room full volume on a Friday night…. and the party would begin for us all! Fantastic tune and better times/music than now.

@kirkham111

This sort of music needs to return

@timsohn7057

Kind of a late reply, but the South Korean group New Jeans just dropped a single called New Jeans. They revealed it was a UK garage inspired song. Kind of reminds me of Artful Dodger and Craig David song Something

Heard this tune in 1999 when I was 16 fresh out of secondary school.
Nearly 20 years later, still as good as it was back then !

@davehanley4776

@MrCdt

One of the best garage classics

@MrMdonaghy7

Classic example of 2 step garage and launched Artful Dodger and Craig David into the mainstream. Better standard and quality of music as well than today's rubbish
