Let It Show
Every time that you, reveal your colors true
I’m just not sure what to believe
By descending candlelight, I waited through the night
Lost within this gnarly web we weave
I couldn’t bare to let you go
You couldn’t bare to tell me what I needed to know
You left me standing in the cold
But still I knew your love was inside
I remember knocking at your door
The day you opened up to me along the shore
Hand in hand you told me everything
But even footprints fade away
One thing I can tell you baby
My heart just can’t let go
And I don’t care if our colors clash
If you love me let it show
Let it show
I need two, two perfect hands
I need an ace, to help her understand
I need a break, lady luck on my side
Our just a place
Where I can hide
And though I’m no good for you, and you’re just no good for me
And you just can’t believe that I’m your kind
I’ll hold you every night, as I squeeze my pillow tightly
To every other lover I’ll be blind
I want that chance to bring you home
Lay by the fire as we touch I read you poems
About a love who couldn’t dare to face a
Decision so black and white
One thing I can tell you baby
My heart just can’t let go
And I don’t care if our colors clash
If you love me let it show
Let it show
Let it show
