Show Me
Lisa Crawley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby's been gone so long
Don't worry, I'm still holding on
But how long will you keep me waiting
When you get home you know what you've been missing
I'll show you I'm the only one for you
I want someone who knows the way to love me
Show me everything that we can do
Show me everything that we can do

When you're gone, I miss you so
Much more than you'll ever, ever know
But how long will you keep me waiting
When you get home you know what you've been missing
I'll show you I'm the only one for you
I want someone who knows the way to love me




Show me everything that we can do
Show me everything that we can do

Lovely song! I laughed very hard about the cat stealing the scene when it went head first into the butter. I have at least three films I directed where my cats decided to make a cameo appearance. What do you do? :)
