    Lyrics

    [Ne-Yo]
    I believe that love and trust are one in the same
    I don't think you can truly love somebody unless you trust them
    That blind trust, that beyond a shadow of a doubt
    No matter what this person sayin', that person
    You believe your man
    Now you say you love me
    But every time one of your little friends come at you with something
    We gotta do this
    Mama, I'm tryin, I'm trying to show you that I'm for real
    Tell me what I gotta do to show you that I'm for you

    [Jennifer Hudson]
    Just shut up and listen

    [Jennifer Hudson]
    Two hundred and sixteen
    That's how many times that I went
    Back and forth about it in my mind
    Could she, could she really be
    Who he's telling me that she is?
    There's something about it
    That don't feel right

    [Jennifer Hudson (Ne-Yo)]
    Said, today she called here twenty-six times
    (I know you counted)
    You kept telling me not to worry
    (Don't worry 'bout it)
    Wanna believe that you're telling the truth
    (So don't doubt it)
    But if you are lying to me...

    [Jennifer Hudson]
    You're leaving tonight
    Out of my life
    Everyone said you ain't no good
    Then you prove them right
    You're leaving tonight
    It's over and done
    Ain't no sense in trying to wait till the morning comes
    (You're leaving tonight)

    [Ne-Yo]
    Baby, now hold up
    Let's just settle down
    'Cause there's a perfect explanation to this situation
    That we're goin' through
    (This thing that we're goin' through)
    I swear I don't know that girl
    But I seen her 'round
    And she's expressed how much she want it
    But, baby, I'm not on that
    All of me is around you, oh

    [Ne-Yo (Jennifer Hudson)]
    Said, I got a girl like a thousand times
    (So you counted)
    She kept telling me not to worry
    (Don't worry 'bout it)
    Please believe I'm telling the truth
    (I really doubt it)
    Really wish you would believe in me

    I'm not leaving tonight
    Girl, you're my life
    All of your friends think I'm no good
    Please, don't prove them right
    I'm not leaving tonight
    It's over and done
    Let's leave this alone, and let's make love
    Till the morning come
    (Not leaving tonight)

    [Jennifer Hudson (Ne-Yo)]
    Oh, I won't deny
    That everything in my body
    Wants to know that you're the one
    (So, what's the problem, girl?)
    See, I can't take this serious when you're just having fun
    (No, I'm not just having fun)
    Steady running around, making a fool of me, oh!
    (Baby girl, you can't listen to everyone)
    (I'm your man) You're my man (Trust in me)
    (Don't let them interfere with us being happy)

    [Jennifer Hudson (Ne-Yo)]
    (Love me, girl)
    I love you, that's a fact
    (Say that you love me, baby)
    But I'll be dammed if I'm a let you up and disrespect who's been there from the start
    You not gon' disrespect my heart
    You claim to not know not know that, girl
    But her name and number is in your phone
    She even got a ring tone
    You care to explain that part?

    [Jennifer Hudson (Ne-Yo)]
    Said, today she called here twenty-six times
    (I know you counted)
    You kept telling me not to worry
    (Please, don't worry 'bout it)
    Wanna believe that you're telling the truth
    (So don't doubt it)
    But if you are lying to me...

    [Ne-Yo (Jennifer Hudson)]
    I'm not leaving tonight (leaving tonight)
    Girl, you're my life
    (Everyone said you ain't no good
    And you prove them right, you're leaving tonight)
    I'm not leaving tonight
    (It's over and done)
    Just leave this alone
    And let's make love
    Till the morning come
    Not leaving tonight

    [Ne-Yo (Jennifer Hudson)]
    Said I just need you to trust me, baby
    (I wanna trust you)
    Not leaving tonight
