A Little More Trust - David Ruffin

The word today is 'love'

Those of us who have it are lucky

My friends must envy my baby and me, because…

People come to me, all alone and

Mystified by the way we’ve stuck together

But I tell them it’s no secret, no no

It’s plain as day we did it this way

Exercised a little more trust, we thought a little harder 'bout us

We both took time to care whenever we felt despair

But oh, it wasn’t easy, no no no no

There were times, there were times when we felt like turning around

But an inner voice, an inner voice kept on saying and saying

'David, don’t, don’t put each other down'

And in time, ooh, in time we grew closer, yes we did

I to her, her to me

Giving, ooh, giving was the answer

And patience, patience was the key

And now, now now now our love flows smooth as a waterfall

It’s all because we exercised a little more trust

We thought a little harder 'bout us

We both took the time to care whenever we felt despair

And oh, Lord knows we have no secret, no no

It’s easy as A-B-C

Oh, if you know love is true

Here’s, here’s what you’ve got to do

People, exercise a little more trust, so we could eat today

Think a little harder like us in each and every way

We both took the time to care, yes we did

Held together when you feel despair, yeah
