Shake Your Love
Debbie Gibson Lyrics

Shake your love
Debbie is trying to give up on her love but finds she can't

I just can't shake your love
Debbie finds herself unable to shake off her love for the person she is singing about

I'm under a spell again
Debbie believes that she has been enchanted and bewitched by the person she loves

Boy, I'm wondering why
Debbie is questioning why she has fallen in love with this person

This is not a game of love but
Debbie doesn't see her love as a game, she sees it as an emotional attachment to this person

An emotional tie
Debbie is emotionally tied to the person she loves

I'm trying to figure out my heart (heart..)
Debbie is trying to make sense of why she loves this person

But I can't offer you proof
Debbie can't offer evidence to explain why she loves this person

Of why we should never be apart
Debbie is saying that they should always be together

And that is the (that is the ) that is the truth
Debbie is passionate about her love for this person and is emphasizing that it's the truth

Do you know why I stop and stare
Debbie is asking the person if they know why she looks at them with admiration

And smile when you walk by
Debbie can't help but smile when she sees the person she loves

And how I call you up at night
Debbie admits to calling the person she loves in the middle of the night

I hang up the phone and I cry
Debbie is indicating that she is in tears after hanging up the phone following a conversation with the person she loves

If I never got to know you so well (I knew you well)
Debbie is reflecting on how she has come to know this person and if she hadn't been able to, then maybe she'd be okay

Maybe I would be fine
Debbie is suggesting that she could have been okay without knowing this person, but that's not the case

Baby you know that I can't tell
Debbie is saying she can't exactly explain why she loves this person

Why you should be (you should be)
Debbie is saying that the person she loves is the one for her

you should be mine, Oh!
Debbie wants this person to be hers and is passionate about it

Ooh, I know what you're thinkin'
Debbie thinks she knows what the person she loves is thinking

I see it in your eyes
Debbie is indicating that she can discern what the person she loves is thinking based on their gaze

You want to give our love another try
Debbie believes that the person she loves wants to rekindle their romance

I'm so glad you realize I can't...
Debbie is happy that the person she loves understands that she can't resist their love

Shake it
Debbie is encouraging the person she loves to shake their love

Your love
Debbie is referring to the love that the person she loves has for her

Can't shake
Debbie is saying that the person she loves can't stop loving her

Just can't shake your love
Debbie can't stop herself from loving the person she is singing about

Shake your love
Debbie is still trying to shake her love, but she can't

Shake your love
Debbie is repeating that she can't shake her love for the person she is singing about

Shake your love
Debbie is encouraging the person she is singing about to shake their love

Shake your love
Debbie is repeating herself again, emphasizing that she cannot shake her love
