Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna trust you baby
I wanna trust you baby
Wanna trust you baby (trust me I love you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me I need you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me I want you)
Wanna trust you babe (trust me)
Trust me I love you
Trust me I need you
Trust me I want you
Trust me

Baby why don't 'cha honey why won't 'cha
Accept the fact that it's not just the knack
That I care, so please let me share
Special moments, moments so rare
Check it out, if I could give you the world, you know I'd do it
Everything at your feet, ain't nothin' to it
But it's hard sweetheart, and it's rough out here
But I doubt there, is anybody else for me

Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me
Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me

Mmm the things I feel, they are for real
I'm past the point of dwellin', on the sex appeal
Mad chicks sweat me, but I desire your womanness
Dude sweats you, but I'm the best
Listen, we could build a future together
No darlin' I would never soup you ever, never
I'm buggin' out, over the thought of you leavin'
Tried to step to you, but now you're retreatin'

Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me
Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me

I do believe you do care
To tell you the truth, I am scared
Some freaky people out there
You know?

Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me

I sent you flowers and, I sat for hours and
Contemplated, the state of our affairs and I find there
Is no way out I'm in a love lock
The funny thing about it I don't wanna even stop, so

Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me
Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me

So now you know the flavor
It's not about the stuff I gave ya
And my behavior is based on strong
Feelings I have, of you and me, it's like a bond
A treasure, not to be corny but word
I wanna give you all the joy that you deserve
I know we argue, sometimes I start to annoy you
But we should never ever, try to destroy two
Hearts joined, intertwined with a passion
Give me a chance love, that's all I'm askin'
And furthermore, you can be sure that I'll do
Every little thing you need, yes it's true
I'm not desperate, but I'm the one for you

Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me
Trust me, I love you
Trust me, I need you
Trust me, I want you
Trust me

Love is so risky y'know
I want you to do and show
Me all of you openly
Honestly

I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I love you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I need you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I want you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I love you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I need you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I want you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I love you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I need you)
I wanna trust you baby (trust me, I want you)
Wanna trust you babe (trust me)
I wanna trust you baby




I wanna trust you baby
I wanna trust you baby

Here because Jazzmatazz turns 30 today. A timeless album that still holds up 30 years later. #RIPGuru

@_ColdAssHonkey_

I have always felt that both Guru and N'Dea are two of the most UNDERATED artists in their genres. Brand New Heavies should have blown up much bigger than they did. And Guru is still in my top 5 hip-hop artists of all time, right next to Pete Rock, The Tribe and Nas.

@Rafagafanhotobra

BNH was up there with Incognito, Jamiroquai, Corduroy and James Taylor Quartet in the early to mid 90's, when we think on the jazz-funk/retro side of acid jazz.

The thing was that, to be honest, BNH was mostly at their peak with N'Dea. BNH originally was the three other guys, and N'Dea came along with time. Their two albums with her were amazing, but otherwise they didn't go much further in terms of success and media. Most acid jazz bands had some hits over the years, but mostly only Jamiroquai had the big label behind them. Incognito, IMO comes in second in terms of fame, but first place in terms of consistency over the decades. Other have been quite consistent too, in their respective niches, some of them to this day.

@markandresen1

Ha! I came on here to say almost the same thing. N'Dea's one of my favourite vocalists, but she's about number 800 in consideration by the media.

@juniorjames7076

@@Rafagafanhotobra Tooooooo many dope amazing music groups on the shelves of record stores in the 1990s! Many times I had no idea what to buy with the little money I had so i left empty handed to think it over in the mall food court! LOL!

@THALYRIKALONE

This brings back memories. Summer 1993 at the age of 13... Makes me wanna shed tears.....REAL HIP HOP!!

@russelldrakeford7077

Yo I was 20 and it does me the same way. Hip Hop can live pure without drugs sex and violence! We got to get it back!

@jasonpalacios1363

+Me You -Yeah me too man. I miss this style of Hip-Hop. Also I was 13 in the summer of 1993.

@hennylo68
