Shakes Song Lyrics

[Intro: Luke Hemmings]
(Ah-ah)
(Ah)

[Verse 1: Luke Hemmings]
Lost in the mornin', time starts to crawl
Can we share the lonely if my heart is small?
Your touch is deadly (Ah) and I wanna call
Is it better to feel this (Ah) or feel nothing at all?

[Chorus: Luke Hemmings]
Honey, I just wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shake this feelin'
Boy, I just wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shake this feelin'

[Post-Chorus: Luke Hemmings]
Shake, shake, shake
Ooh
Shake, shake, shake

[Verse 2: Luke Hemmings]
I feel it comin', my blood is wine
Oh, I can't help but chase you, my butterfly
I wanna go out in my sleep now (Ah), so I don't feel no pain
The city tends to move on all the same (Ah)

[Chorus: Luke Hemmings]
Honey, I just wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shake this feelin'
Boy, I just wanna bе yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shakе this feelin'

[Post-Chorus: Luke Hemmings]
Shake, shake, shake
Ooh
Shake, shake, shake

[Bridge: Luke Hemmings]
I just want to be, I just want to be (Shake, shake, shake)
Yours (Shake, shake, shake)
I just want to be, I just want to be (Shake, shake, shake)
Yours (Shake, shake, shake)

[Chorus: Luke Hemmings]
Honey, I just wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shake this feelin'
Boy, I just wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Inside your dreams tonight
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't shake this feelin'
