Shiver
Hearsay T.A.O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't know how you do it
Like there's nothing to it
You just look my way
You come a little closer
I lose my composure
Don't know what to say
I'm overwhelmed, you smile, I melt
And somewhere inside, oh baby, I, I

Shiver, tremble, I never
No I never once felt so much
It shakes me how you take me
Deeper than I've ever been
It's to the core, under my skin
I shiver

I love the way your whisper
Slowly, softly lingers
In my ear
You move a little closer
The world starts spinning slower
Then it disappears
You lips so close, we kiss almost
Just barely touch but that's enough
To make me

Shiver, tremble, I never
No I never once felt so much
It shakes me how you take me
Deeper than I've ever been
It's to the core, under my skin
I shiver

It shakes me
How you take me
Deeper than I've ever been
It's to the core, under my skin




I shiver
Shiver
