Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the pages have always been blink like the trees in the wild
But the wind, yes the wind keeps pushing you and me
Time in time, I know when it’s time to leave
If the memories we make, will never been lost, no
And the look on your face, we both knew the cost
But the wind, yes the wind keeps howling
I put in the pictures, you put in the time
You put all those memories so deep inside my mind
Now the wind, yes the wind keeps pushing you and me
And time in time, I know when it’s time to leave
And the memories we’ve made, will never be lost, no
And the look on your face, we both knew the cost
But the wind, yes the wind keeps howling
Even if it was a mistake, I can’t forget your face
Even if it was just a day,
You won’t forget the one who’s making you shake
Kinda lost my way you see
Kinda lost my way you see
Kinda lost my way you see
Kinda lost my way you see
Even if it was a mistake, I can’t forget your face
Even if it was just a day,
You won’t forget the man who’s making you shake
Who’s making you shake, you shake
Ah, making you shake
You shake
Ah, making you shake
The song 'Shake' by theheadandtheheart speaks about memories of a relationship that didn't work out but has left a lasting impact on both parties involved. The first verse of the song talks about how plans don't always work out and how the wind, which is often used as a metaphor for change, keeps pushing the two people involved in the relationship. Even though they both know it's time to leave, they hold onto the memories they've made. The second verse expands on the idea of memories, and how they've left an emotional impact on the person singing the song. They can't forget the look on the other person's face, and even if it was just a day, that person won't forget the one who made them "shake."
The chorus of the song repeats the idea of memories never being lost despite the fact that the relationship didn't work out. The line "But the wind, yes the wind keeps howling" is repeated multiple times, emphasizing that the passage of time doesn't erase the memories.
The bridge of the song has a repeating line "Kinda lost my way you see" that could suggest that the person singing the song is still trying to find their way after the end of the relationship. The line "Even if it was a mistake, I can't forget your face" shows that even though the relationship didn't work out, it still had a lasting impact on the person. The final line, "You won't forget the man who's making you shake" could be interpreted as a taunt towards the other person, suggesting that they won't forget the impact they had on each other.

Feel, feel it grow
In your mind, in your mind
Life is how you live it
Through time, through time
And there's no desert sun that is hot enough to feed your fire
We shipwreck like fools only to become the ocean's choir
And the sun dies until it's reborn
But there's no road that ain't a hard road to travel on
