Lyricist: James Taylor Composer: James Taylor
You can play the game and you can act out the part
Even though you know it wasn't written for you
Tell me how can 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 father and mother sister and brother if it feels nice don't think twice
Just shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine if you only will do as I say just
Shower the people you love with love show them the way you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will
You can run but you cannot hide this is widely known
Tell me 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
Better to shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel
I know things are gonna be just fine if you only will what I'd like to do to you
Shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will
Shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel
Shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel
You'll feel better right away
Don't take much to do sell you pride
They say in every life they say the rain must fall just like pouring rain make it rain
Make it rain love love love is sunshine oh yes
Make it rain love love love is sunshine Everybody everybody
