Lyrics
VERSE 1
She said, "baby are you lonely"
He said, "all the time"
So they got together long enough for her to find
That lonely ain't a reason
For 2 to intertwine
So she offered just to sit awhile
But he declined
CHORUS 1
He said, "won't you please show me what it's like to live"
She said, "I'd love to show you baby but I need more than you give"
He said, "you're the one I want to spend the night with"
Then he looked the other way
She was tempted just to stay
But she wanted more than night
She wanted day
VERSE 2
She said, "I got to get to leaving"
And like he never heard
He didn't even move to say goodbye
He didn't say a word
So she gathered her belongings
As he sat up in the bed
She turned and headed for the door
That's when he said
CHORUS 2
"Oh, won't you please show me what it's like to live"
She said, "I'd love to show you baby but I need more than you give"
He said, "you're the one I want to spend the night with"
Then he looked the other way
She was tempted just to stay
But she wanted more than night
She wanted day
CHORUS 3
He said, "won't you please show me what it's like to live"
She said, "I'd love to show you baby but I need more than you give"
He said, "you're the one I want to spend the night with"
Then he looked the other way
She was tempted just to stay
But she wanted more than night
She wanted day
