Have you ever been in a situation when you could put someone’s mind at ease by simply revealing the details that they seek — and showing them that what’s happening in your mind, heart and life honestly has nothing to do with them but is something else entirely that’s very private and personal — but the very fact that it’s something so deeply personal is why you’re not ready (if you ever will be) to share?

“We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
When you don’t believe a word I say?

We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again
Asking where I’ve been
You can’t see these tears are real
I’m crying

We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let’s don’t let a good thing die

When honey, you know
I’ve never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah.”

— Elvis Presley, “Suspicious Minds”
