Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Trust in me, baby
Give me time, give me time, mmm, give me time
I heard somebody say, oh, "The older the grape
Sweeter the wine, sweeter the wine"
[Verse 2]
Oh, my love is like a seed, baby
Just needs time to grow
It's growing stronger day by day, yeah
That's the price you've got to pay
[Verse 3]
Trust in me, baby
Give me time, give me time, please, a little more time
Takes a road runner just a little bit longer, dear
Oh, to make up my mind, I gotta make up my mind
[Verse 4]
Oh, my love is like a seed, baby
Just needs time to grow
It's growing stronger day by day, yeah
That's the price that we both got to pay
[Verse 5]
I got to know, know that I'm ready
Oh, ready to settle down
'Cause I think too much of your loving, baby
Yeah, I don't wanna mess your life around
[Verse 6]
So if you love me like you tell me that you do, dear
You shouldn't mind paying the price, any price, any price
Love is supposed to be that special kind of thing
Make anybody want to sacrifice
[Verse 7]
My love is like a seed, baby
Just needs time to grow
It's growing stronger day by day, yeah
That's the price we both gotta pay
[Verse 8]
Trust in me, baby
Trust in me, baby
Trust in my love, in my heart
Keep the faith, baby
Keep the faith in me, dear
In my arms, in my love
[Verse 9]
Don't turn your face away from me, dear
Or you'll leave a lost girl
Oh, don't turn your love away
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
You gotta believe in me, baby, yeah
Trust me, dear, oh
