From the Album: Strangelove
Can't Shake it Off
Verse 1
I asked the dawn to rise early this morning
there's a devil in my dreams
she's like an angel in all of her glory
but it's never quite what it seems
she met me when I closed my eyes
tempting me with a force of nature
why would she do this to me
doesn't she know I'm in love?
Chorus
She's got a hold on me
it's like I'm staring at the sun
and I can barely see
where I was coming from
oooh
I'm blue and I'm black
I got this wall to my back
and I can't shake it off
Verse 2
So now we're sinking
like stones on the water
I guess I got in too deep
I let her sit on my throne:
queen deceiver and me
Chorus x2
She's got a hold on me
it's like I'm staring at the sun
and I can barely see
where I was coming from
oooh
I'm blue and I'm black
I got this wall to my back
and I can't shake it off
Oooh... Yeah...
Oooh... Yeah...
I Can't it off... yeah
I Can't shake her off.
No, no, no, no, no
I asked the dawn to rise early this morning
there's a devil in my dreams
