Show You Lyrics

You can’t walk the streets at night
You're way too short to get on this ride
No I'm not, no I'm not, you tryna tell me that I
I gotta be home when the street lights glow?
You can’t watch your TV show
I will watch what I wanna watch
No, won’t listen to you, do what I wanna do

And I will walk this road ahead
One hundred miles on my hands
Do I need to Show You?
Guess I gotta show you
And if you don't believe me now
I'll flip the whole world upside down
Do I need to show you?
Guess I gotta show you

Watch me swim across this lake
Fly through the sky in my Superman cape
Watch me walk across this wire
Tip-toe through the coals of a blazing fire
Watch me fly this kite in the rain
I’ll jump rope with my ball and chain
Come by and knock on my house of cards
If it falls I'll rebuild it from the start
I won’t listen to you, do what I wanna do

And I will walk this road ahead
One hundred miles on my hands
Do I need to show you?
Guess I gotta show you
And if you don't believe me now
I'll flip the whole world upside down
Do I need to show you?
Guess I gotta show you

Do I really gotta show you now? Really, really, really, gotta show you now?
Do I really gotta spell it out? I-T, I spell it out
If you really wanna see me now? Watch me walk across the clouds
I don’t know what you heard about, listen to me yell it loud
Do I really gotta show you now? Really, really, really, gotta show you now?
Do I really gotta spell it out? I-T, I spell it out
If you really wanna see me now? Watch me walk across the clouds
I don’t know what you heard about, see that door I'll knock it down

And I will walk this road ahead
Hundred miles on my hands
Do I need to show you?
Guess I gotta show you
And if you don't believe me now
I'll flip the whole world upside down
And do I need to show you?
Guess I gotta show you

Do I really gotta show you now? Really, really, really, gotta show you now?
Do I really gotta spell it out? I-T, I spell it out
If you really wanna see me now? Watch me walk across the clouds
Do I need to show you? Guess I gotta show you

Show You Song Chart

"Show You" was written by Shawn Mendes along with the New York-based musicians Ido Zmishlany and Scott Harris, and the Swedish producer Martin Terefe. In our interview with Ido Zmishlany , he revealed that Mendes actually approached the trio with a good portion of the song already done. Zmishlany explained the changes that they made to the tune. "We found a melody, flow, and lyric that tied it all together in a way that felt compelling," he said.

He expressed his thought process on how to make the song shine: "It was like, 'Okay, well, what does 'Show You' mean? How do we develop that meaning? How do we get some lyrics that really hit?' And that was it. He came in with most of it. We just tweaked it from there and came out with something that we're really proud of."

Speaking with Radio.com , Shawn singled out this track as his favorite from The Shawn Mendes EP. "The song is about how people are always telling you that you can't do something because you're too young or whatever, and how you have the power to show the world that you can do whatever you want," he explained. "It's a pretty empowering song."
