[verse 1] You know we’ve been here before Why is it every time I try to walk out the door You beg me for a chance, just one more? I can list all the reasons I should go And I can back them up, too And then you say the sweetest things With eyes all warm and true….. [pre-chorus] You’re going to say: I can’t live without you Even for just one day You’re going to say: I don’t want anyone but you! Come on, baby, you know it’s true! And all l have to say is: [chorus] Show me! Stop talking so much! Show me! I won’t be deflected By your touch! Show me! It’s not the things you’ve done It’s the things you never do I can’t listen anymore to you I’m tired of hearing words It’s time for you to Show Me! [verse 2] You’re always late When you’re coming home I’m so tired of sitting alone And waiting for you You saunter in With a big shit-eatin’ grin Tell me story number twenty-two And say, “All I want is to hold you!” All your stories come with kisses All your tales come with a touch But your actions don’t match The words coming out of your mouth [pre-chorus] You’re going to say: I can’t live without you Even for just one day You’re going to say: I don’t want anyone but you! Come on, baby, you know it’s true! And all l have to say is: [chorus] Show me! Stop talking so much! Show me! I won’t be deflected By your touch! Show me! It’s not the things you’ve done It’s the things you never do I can’t listen anymore to you I’m tired of hearing words It’s time for you to Show Me! [Instrumental break for lead instruments solo] [bridge] I must admit you’re smooth I must admit you’re cute But I’m tired of what you say Without any physical truth! [verse 3] You never argue with me And you’re sorry when I’m hurt But you’ll repeat it all again Even though you promise you won’t I want to be your partner I need to believe in you But how can I justify it When what you say is not what you do? [final chorus] Show me! Stop talking so much! Show me! I won’t be deflected By your touch! Show me! It’s not the things you’ve done It’s the things you never do I can’t listen anymore to you I’m tired of hearing words It’s time for you to Show Me! [outro] It’s not the things you’ve done It’s the things you never do I can’t listen anymore to you I’m tired of hearing words It’s time for you to Show Me! This is your last chance to Show Me! [Instrumental to out]
