Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
I'm under a spell again
Boy, I'm wondering why
This is not a game of love but
An emotional tie
I'm trying to figure out my heart (heart..)
But I can't offer you proof
Of why we should never be apart
And that is the (that is
the ) that is the truth
Oh!
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Do you know why I stop and stare
And smile when you walk by
And how I call you up at night
I hang up the phone and I cry
If I never got to know you so well (I knew you well)
Maybe I would be fine
Baby you know that I can't
tell
Why you should be (you should be)
you should be mine, Oh!
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Ooh, I know what you're thinkin'
I see it in your eyes
You want to give our love another try
I'm so glad you realize I can't...
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake
your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake it
Your love
Can't shake
Just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't
shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake....Say shake it!
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love

"Shake Your Love" (Atlantic 89187, Atlantic UK A9187) is the second single by American singer-songwriter-actress Debbie Gibson, and the lead off single for her debut album, Out of the Blue (1987) (LP 81780). Originally recorded in the spring of 1987, the song is written by Gibson and produced by Fred Zarr and engineered by Don Feinberg for BiZarr Music, Inc., with Douglas Breitbart as executive producer. It was released in September 1987 and reached No. 4 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in December that year. It was her breakthrough single in the UK, reaching No. 7 in early 1988.[1] Both tracks on the US-specification single also appeared among the six total tracks of the simultaneously released maxi-single (Atlantic DM 86651), which reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Maxi-Singles chart.
The music video to support this single, eventually included on Gibson's video album Out of the Blue (Atlantic VHS 50123) was set on a facsimile of a drive-in movie theater lot and choreographed by Paula Abdul.[2]
In 2010, Gibson re-recorded the song as an extra track for the Deluxe Edition release of the Japan-exclusive album Ms. Vocalist.
