I went to the door and She said He went to the Store but you can come in if you want. I told Her I'd wait in My Car till He comes back. When he came up I got out of My Car we both went inside conduct our business online.
    The Next Day He said: Man I appreciate what you did, My wife Said you could come in...You did Right, you could of come in I was on the way back, but that was respectful.

    Great song! Bobby Womack was a great poet, song writer, singer! As a young man of age 21 who married Cooke's widow after Cooke's death. Cooke lost his life while cheating with another woman who was not his wife. This is a romantic song lamenting about someone who is falling in love with his best friend's wife. It is a natural occurrence happening for some or could happen for some others. In my opinion this song is not necessarily related to what happened when he was age 21. This is a great love song depicting the complex complications of falling in love. One of Womack's best songs! I love it!

      He was creeping with Sam Cook's wife behind his back. This Song by Bobby Womack, 1985, was him telling on himself. Womack was a favored student of Sam Cooke, the rich & influential R&B singer-songwriter. He was murdered in 1964. Just 3 months later, Womack married Cook's widow. Bobby Womack then took the hot mess to the next level, sleeping with Sam Cooke's daughter and wife. Womack is one of the most diabolical cats to ever croon a tune.🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

      Well... if you think the “backstory” of this song has anything to do with Sam Cooke, then fortunately your “speechless” problem should be clearing up very soon...
      Sam Cooke was already dead (for 20 years) - when this song was written, recorded, and released. The song has nothing to do with Sam Cooke. The song is about something else. And someone else.
      And btw, if you think it is just a random occurrence, that this video poster has your misinformed comment featured at the top of this comments page - think again.

    "Yield not to temptation. For yielding is sin. Each victory will help you... some other to win. Fight manfully onward. Dark passion subdue. Look ever to Jesus ....He will carry you through." (Bobby was being tempted in his own mind. Yep. Temptation sort of talks like that. Well, if he keeps his hands to himself and go the other way, he will be a-okay. We all get tempted sometimes, but what you do about it is what counts. That song I was quoting...I love that song.)
