Show Me

Michael Ball


Don't talk of stars 
Burning above; 
If you're in love, 
Show me! 

Tell me not dreams 
Filled with desire. 
If you're on fire, 
Show me! 

Never do I ever want 
to hear another word. 
There isn't one 
I haven't heard. 
Here we are together 
in what ought to be a dream; 
Say one more word and 
I'll scream! 

Sing me no song! 
Read me no rhyme! 
Don't waste my time, 
Show me! 

Please don't implore 
Beg on the seats 
Don't make all the speach 
Show me! 

Here we are together in the middle of the night! 
Don't talk of spring! Just hold me tight! 
Anyone who's ever been in love'll tell you that 
This is no time for a chat! 

Haven't your arms 
Hungered for mine? 
Please don't explain 
Show me! 
Show me! 
Don't wait until wrinkles and lines 
Pop out all over my brow, 
Show me now! 

Never do I ever want to hear another word. 
There isn't one 
I haven't heard. 
Here we are together in what ought to be a dream; 
Say one more word and 
I'll scream!

Haven't your lips 
Longed for my touch? 
Don't say how much, 
Show me! Show me! 
Don't wait until wrinkles and lines 
Pop out all over my brow, 
Show me now!
