You can play the game and you can act out the part
Though you know it wasn’t written for you,
But tell me how can you stand there with your broken heart
Ashamed of playing the fool.
One thing can lead to another; it doesn’t take any sacrifice.
Oh, father and mother, sister and brother,
If it feels nice, don’t think twice. Just…
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel.
Things are gonna work out fine, if you only will do as I say.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way you feel.
Things are gonna be much better if you only will.
You can run but you cannot hide; this is widely known.
And what you plan to do with you foolish pride
When you’re all by yourself alone.
Once you tell somebody the way that you feel
You can feel it beginning to ease.
I think it’s true what they say about the squeaky wheel,
Always getting the grease. Better to…
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel.
Things are gonna work out fine, if you only will do as I say.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way you feel.
Things are gonna be much better if you only will.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel.
Things are gonna be just fine, if you only will what I’d like to do to you.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel.
Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel.
