Show Me The Way
Allure feat. Lindsey Ray Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Show me a way that I could run to you
Show me a place where we could meet
You don't have to fear the words that show you care
You don't have to think before you speak

Why don't you stay to love me
Surrender your heart for something
Or just let the night take over

And forget the time...

Why don't you show me the way
Why don't you show me the way
Why don't you show me the way
Why don't you show me the way

Flashes of heat surround the night before
Nothing was real with you and me
So show me a way that I could be with you
You'll never need to pretend with me

Why don't you stay to love me

Why don't you show me the way
Why don't you show me the way

Why don't you show me the way
Why don't you show me the way
