I need some time to contemplate
Now I seem to see you're just an overnight flame
So much that I can take but I can't take no more
If you tease me with your love then you go walking on the door

And now you come back crying that you love me
And all you've got to give is broken dreams

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me

I think it's time to have my say
There's nothing standing in my way
Not like before when I was just your second fool
Using my affection ever so cruel

And now you come back crying that you meet me
Oh, can't you see that I've got feelings?

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me

Don't tell me, tell me
Don't show me, tell me
Don't tell you, tell me
Don't show me, tell me
Don't tell you, tell me
Don't show me, tell me
Don't tell me

Show me to love me
You gotta show me
Show me
Come on, you gotta show me
Show me that you really care, baby

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

(I wanna know, I don't wanna know, baby)

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
(You gotta show me, baby)
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

(Show me, girl, show me, baby)

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
(I wanna know, baby)

You just gotta show me
Oh, baby

Oh, baby
Just can't take no more
I just got to say
I wanna go if you don't show me

Baby, you got to know me, girl, show me
You got to show me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
Love me

(I don't wanna know if you got, no)

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
(I just place show me no, baby)
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
You gotta show me

Come on now, don't you tell me, girl
Don't you tell me
Just, show me, baby

If don't wanna know it
If you don't wanna show it, baby
Hold me down
So much that I can take

Ooh, I just can't take no more
Don't tell me, tell me that you love
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
Love me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
Don't show me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
Love me

Don't tell me, tell me that you love, don't tell me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love me
Do not show me
Don't tell me, tell me that you love
