You can play the game
You can act out the part
But you know it wasn't written for you
Tell me how do 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 mother and father, sister and brother
If it feels nice, don't think twice
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine
If we only will
What I mean to say is
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be much better
If we only will
You can run
But you cannot hide
This is widely known
And what you plan to do with your 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
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be just fine
If we only will, do as I say
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be much better
If we only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
(repeat)
Beautiful song that the artist that my nephew was named after. A deep refelective appreciation to its music.
