"A Question of Trust" (6/22/86)

I can say that "I love you",
But will you ever trust me
I don't question your love---
Just your "trust"!

Can I casually mention that I saw an "old flame"?
Without you wondering,
If something more occurred.
How much do you really trust me?

When I am "out of town"---
For a couple days on business,
Do you think I am having a "torrid love affair"?
You doubt my words!
Can you take anything I say as the truth?

Things will never work out betwen us---
If you don't believe in me.

I can promise---my life away,
Until I am "blue in the face".
But that will be all in vain---
Unless you can trust me.
My words will mean nothing to you.

I will always "love and trust you".
But until you learn to "trust" me---
We will never make it together.
