You’ve Got to Show Songtext
von Indigo Girls

Yes it′s true
I've gotten very moody over you
Don′t think I don't sense your caution way across the room
Or across the phone line
Big black ocean
Conversation brief

We can't find a clear connection
And I can′t get relief

Why don′t we both agree we're both afraid
And too afraid to say

If I said count to three
(Count to three)
Move toward me
(Move toward me)
Would you meet me half way (would you meet me)

There are a thousand things about me
I want only you to know
But I can′t got there alone
You've got to show


While you occupy me
I command my dreams each day

To bring you in me even thinly
As the morning chases you away

I half believe if I just picture us
We will come true

Wishful thinking
Or my hopes sinking
Half depends on you

Why don′t we both agree
(Why don't we both agree)
We′re both afraid and too afraid to say
(Too afraid to say)

If I said count to three
(Count to three)
Move toward me
(Move toward me)
Would you meet me half way (would you meet me)


There are a thousand things about me
I want only you to know
But I can't got there alone
You've got to show me

(Show me)
You are fully alive
If you want to fly take this dive
If you want to kiss
Kiss for real
I′ll give you back everything you feel

Drive and space that peaceful place
You′d be my secret sharer

Front and back and all around
The thin margin of error

Ah move too fast or move too slow
Or somewhere in between
Or navigate your perfect distance
Your get away is clean
Why don't we both agree
That we′re both afraid
And we're too afraid to say
If I said count to three
Move toward me
Would you meet me half way
Cause there are a thousand things about me
I want only you to know
I want only you to know
I want only you to know
But I can′t go there alone
You've got to show
