Show Me Love
Steve Angello/Laidback Luke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you're looking for devotion
You've got to show me love
You've got to show me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
You've got to show me love
I've had more than my share
I'm tired of giving my love
And gettin' nowhere (nowhere)
What I need is somebody
Who really cares
I really need a lover
A lover that wants to be there
Its been so long since I've touched a wanting hand
I can't put my love on the line
This I hope you'll understand
So baby if you want me
You've got to show me love
Words aren't so easy to say oh I
You've got to show me love
Show me, show me baby
Show me, show me baby
Show me, show me baby
I'm tired of getting caught up
In those one night affairs
What I really need is somebody
Who will always be there
Don't you promise me the world
All that I've already heard
This time around for me, baby
Actions speak louder than words
If your looking for devotion
Talk to me
Come with your heart in your hands
Because my love is guaranteed
So baby if you want me
You've got to show me love
Words aren't so easy to say, oh I
You've got to show me love
In the song "Show Me Love," Steve Angello featuring Robin S calls for genuine affection in a relationship. Robin S points out that if someone is seeking her devotion, they must prove their worthiness by displaying love in return. She emphasizes the necessity for actions instead of empty promises. She affirms that love is not something that should be taken lightly and cannot be expressed merely by words. In the chorus, she repeats the phrase "show me love" to let her partner know that she needs proof of their dedication. She emphasizes that she wants a love that is genuine and stands the test of time; she is tired of one night stands which lead nowhere.
In the second verse, Robin S is specific about what she wants. She seeks someone reliable who is always there. Her sense of isolation is evident as she confesses about not being touched by another in a long time. Consequently, she has her guard up and cannot freely give her love. The emotional distance makes her hesitant to trust and invest completely in someone. The song's message is hopeful, hoping that there is someone out there who will show her love the way she desires.
