Al WilsonShow and Tell Lyrics:
These are the eyes that never knew how to smile
Till you came into my life
And these are the arms that long to lock you inside
Every day and every night
Girl, and here is the soul of which you've taken control
Can't you see I'm tryin' to show love is right
Oh show and tell just a game I play
When I wanna say, "I love you"
Girl, so show me and tell me
That you feel the same way too
Say you do, baby
These are the hands that can't help reaching for you
If you're anywhere in sight
And these are the lips that can't help callin' your name
In the middle of the night
Oh, and here is the man who needs to know where you stand
Don't you know I've done all I can, so decide
Oh show and tell just a game I play
When I wanna say, "I love you"
Girl, so show me and tell me
That you feel the same way too
Say you do, say you do, baby, baby, baby
Ah, here is the soul of which you've taken control
Can't you see I'm tryin' to show love is right
Ooh, girl, show and tell just a game I play
When I wanna say, "Oh, I love you"
Girl, so show me and tell me
That you feel the same way too
Say you do, say you do, baby
Oh show and tell just a game I play
When I wanna say, "Oh, I love you"
Girl, so show me and tell me
That you feel the same way too
