Al WilsonShow and Tell Lyrics:
These are the eyes,
That never knew how to smile,
Till you came into my life.
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo.)
And these are the arms,
That long to lock you inside,
Every day and every night,
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo.)
Girl, and here is the soul,
Of which you've taken control,
Can't you see I'm tryin' to show,
Love is right.
Whoa-oh-oh-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.
(Anywhere in sight.)
And these are the lips,
That can't help callin' your name,
In the middle of the night.
(Middle of the night.)
Whoa, and here is the man,
Who needs to know where you stand,
Don'tcha know I've done all I can,
So decide.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, show and tell,
It's just a game I play,
When I wanna say, "I love you."
(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.
[Instrumental break with vocal stylings.]
Ahhhh, here is the soul,
Of which you've taken control,
Can't you see I'm tryin' to show,
Love is right.
Ooo, 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.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, show and tell,
Just a game I play, [Fade.]
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...
