"Shake Me Up" lyrics

"Shake Me Up"

Midnight, my doorbell rings
You're standing in the cold with a few of your things and you're crying, yeah
I know words for talking slow
You don't have to tell me, I don't wanna know

When times get tough, you always run right back to me
But I don't care if it makes you feel better

'Cause you shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Oh you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ya shake me up

Next day, the front door slams
You're standing in the street with another man and you're laughing, yeah
You move close, you shake his hand
You smile at me like I understand, oh, uh

In your eyes there is a promise you'll be back
And that's all I need to make me feel better

'Cause you shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
'Cause you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart

Shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ya shake me up, ow

Why don't you make up your mind?
You better stop wastin' my time

At night, my doorbell rings
You're standing in the cold with all of your things and you're smiling, yeah
You walk in and say hello
You don't have to tell me, 'cause I already know, yeah

No more tears, you won't be standing in the cold anymore
You'll be back with me, and it'll be better, oh better

'Cause you shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
C'mon shake me up, break me up

Shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Oh, you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart

(Shake me up, break me up)
(Shake me up, break me up)
(Shake me up, break me up)
(Shake me up, break me up)
