I Wish He Didn't Trust Me So Much

About I Wish He Didn't Trust Me So Much

"I Wish He Didn't Trust Me So Much" is a song written and recorded by soul musician Bobby Womack, released as the leading track off his 1985 album, So Many Rivers, the so-called trilogy to The Poet series of records Womack recorded for Los Angeles-based Beverly Glen Records. The song became one of Womack's final R&B chart-topping hits peaking at number-two on the chart. Womack also shot his first-ever music video with the song which showed Womack singing the song live in a recording studio (the recorded version had different vocals). The song was later referenced by rapper Nas on his song "Blunt Ashes" which talked about Womack's quick marriage to Sam Cooke's widow Barbara Campbell. more »

I'm the best friend he's got
I'd give him the shirt off my back
He knows he can trust me with his life
But he's tryin' to leave me alone
Leaves me alone with his wife

I wish he didn't trust me so much
I think he really trusts me too much

How can he be so blind?
We've both got the same good taste
He should know when he's gone on his business trips
I can't help watchin' his woman
'Cause I'm losin' my grip

I wish he didn't trust me so much
I think he really trusts me too much

Though I swear, all is not my will
But there's a way
There's a way she make me feel
Lord, I'm scared, so scared of what I do
If she starts feelin' same way too

You shouldn't trust me so much
(We got a problem)
I think you really trust me too much

It's not that she leads me on
I'm gettin' there all by myself
But just being with her all, all alone
I can't help but hopin'
That he never comes home

I wish he didn't trust me so much
I think you really trust me too much

I wish he didn't trust me so much
(We got a problem)
I think you really trust me too much

Though I swear, all is not my will
(Is not my will)
But it's somethin' about the way
The way she makes me feel
Lord, I'm so scared, scared of what I do
If she starts feelin' the same way too

I wish he didn't trust me so much
(Ooh)
I think he really trusts me too much
(I got a problem)

You can see, I'm caught up
(I wish he didn't trust me so much)
Caught up in the middle
(I think he really trusts me too much)
And I'm down, tired of playing [Incomprehensible]
