I'm In Love
Zhala Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf
Lay me down
So white and so supreme
Sparkling to the sea,
Lay me down

La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la,

Look about my time,
Take my ground, I don't mind

La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la,

Mind over time, proves oh that I
You and I, till the morning light, light!

I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf
Tickle me, tickle me and slow that I can breathe
I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf
Tickle me, tickle me and slow that I can breathe
There's no way, no, I
I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf
Tickle me, tickle me and slow that I can breathe
No, no, no way, I am




I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf
Tickle me, tickle me and slow that I can breathe

The lyrics of Zhala's song "I'm in Love" explore the feeling of being deeply in love with someone. The repetition of the opening line "I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf" emphasizes the powerful and overwhelming nature of these emotions. The following lines "Lay me down, so white and so supreme, sparkling to the sea," evoke images of surrender and vulnerability, as if the singer is offering themselves completely to their lover. The use of the word "supreme" suggests a feeling of reverence or worship towards the object of their affection.


As the song progresses, the lyrics become more abstract and dreamlike. The repeated refrain of "La la la" creates a sense of euphoria and transports the listener into a state of pure feeling rather than logical thought. Lines like "Mind over time, proves oh that I, you and I, till the morning light, light!" suggest that the singer believes their love is eternal and unshakeable even when faced with the passage of time.


The final lines of the song repeat the refrain "I'm in for a treat, I'm shaking like a leaf" but with the addition of "Tickle me, tickle me and slow that I can breathe." This suggests a desire for intimacy and a desire to be taken care of by their partner. Overall, the lyrics of "I'm in Love" paint a picture of love as a powerful, all-consuming force that can leave one feeling vulnerable and elated all at once.
