In 1989, Wright was replaced by Margo Urban and more hits followed. Their sophomore album "We Can't Go Wrong" includes the lead single "My Heart Skips a Beat" climbed to #38 on the Billboard Hot 100. The ballad title track "We Can't Go Wrong" became their first Top 10 hit, peaking at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100.
By 1992 the trio had more lineup chages: Jackson was the only remaining original member. New members were Evelyn Escalera and Michelle Valentine. Preceeding the released of The Cover Girls third album, "Here It Is", they scored their second Top 10 hit followed ("Wishing On A Star" #9 Pop & #7 Dance) and "Thank You" (#75 Pop). The albums' other singles are "Don't Stop Now" (#63 Pop & #8 Dance) and by "Funk Boutique" (#55 Pop & #8 Dance) and "If You Want My Love (Here It Is)" (#8 Dance). "Don't Stop Now" is noted as the first song to feature the lead vocals of Evelyn Escalera.
With the release of The Cover Girls' fourth album "Satisfy" in 1996, the lead vocal duties were performed by Michelle Valentine. The line up included members Damie, Gayle and Shelia for this album only. The singles from this album are "I Need Your Lovin'" and "I Am Woman." The group went on hiatus after the release of "Satisfy." In early 2012, Sabater, Jackson and Urban reunited and now tour as The Original Cover Girls. Wright is expected to rejoin the line-up as well in 2014. Until 2012, Sabater toured singing Cover Girls songs under the name 'Angel (The Original Cover Girl)'. Sabater has had solo success on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart as Angel Clivillés.
Show Me
The Cover Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm always on your mind
And you say I should be your lover
And we should spend some time
But I'm not persuaded that quickly
My heart has been broken before you see
So if you want to be my lover
You have to prove your love is true to me
Easy to say your thinking of me
Words are so easy to say
Show me, Show me, you really love me
Actions speak louder than words
Show me, Show me, you really need me
Cause all those lies I've already heard
Show me, Show me, you really love me
Let me believe that it's true
Show me, Show me, you really need me
And I'll get together with you
You say that there is no other
I am the only one
And you say that if we were lovers
We would have so much fun
But my mother warned me
That I should beware of yound boys saying things that you say
So I must be sure that if I give you my love
You won't take it then run away
Cause it's easy to tell me you love me
Easy to say your thinking of me
Words are so easy to say
Show me, Show me, you really love me
Actions speak louder than words
Show me, Show me, you really need me
Cause all those lies I've already heard
Show me, Show me, you really love me
Let me believe that it's true
Show me, Show me, you really need me
And I'll get together with you

Show me, Show me, you really need me
Cause all those lies I've already heard
Show me, Show me, you really love me
Let me believe that it's true
Show me, Show me, you really need me
And I'll get together with you
