Lyrics[]
Mercedes:
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Ooh, whoa-oh
This mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
But through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
Mercedes with the Church Choir:
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
Mercedes (with the Church Choir harmonizing):
Whoa-oh, oh
I'm gonna take a little time
(A little time to look around me)
I've got nowhere left to hide
(It looks like love has finally found me)
In my life (The Church Choir: In my life)
(There's been heartache and pain)
Mercedes (with the Church Choir):
(I don't know,) if I can face it again
(Can't stop now)
Mercedes with the Church Choir harmonizing:
I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life (The Church Choir: This lonely life)
Mercedes with the Church Choir (Mercedes):
(Oh) I wanna know what love is
(Oh, oh!) I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
(Yeah) I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)
I want you
Mercedes (The Church Choir):
(To show me ) To show me
(I want to feel what love is) And I know, I know
(I know you can show me) Let's talk about love, yeah!
(I wanna know what love is) Love that you feel inside
(I want you to show me) I want you to show me, yeah
(I wanna feel what love is) No, you just can't hide
(I know you can show me) Show me, yeah, yeah
Mercedes with the Church Choir:
Yeah!
