I Can't Shake It
Melvins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It was almost like Heavenly magic I still can't believe it
All at once my whole world changed and my life never has been the same
God has blessed my life with an Angel and I still can't believe it
I still tend to believe I'm dreaming every time she say's I love you
Who'd have thought we would tie the knot I still can't believe it
Every day I'm grateful for the one I adore who could ask for more
God has sent me an Angel to love me I still can't believe it
I still tend to believe I'm dreaming every time she say's I love you
Who'd have thought we would tie the knot I still can't believe it
Yes I still tend to believe I'm dreaming every time she say's I love you
Who'd have thought we would tie the knot I still can't believe it
No I still can't believe it
