Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much

You know, there aint no other woman, that could make me feel this way
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Gets up close, you know, I just aint got a word to say
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much

Please don't touch, I shake so much
Please don't touch, I shake so much

Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much

You know I got so nervous, when I see his eyes that shine
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
He gets too close, and a chill runs down my spine
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much

Please don't touch, I shake so much
Please don't touch, I shake so much

Well, I don't know why she got her claws in me
'Cause I aint fighting, baby can't you see?
Sneaking up the stairway, running like a thief
Spend the night, just shaking like a leaf

I remember the first time, I took you to a cheap motel
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
I woke up drunk you know, I felt like Eskimo Nell
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much, huh!

Please don't touch, I shake so much
Please don't touch, I shake so much

Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much

Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much
Don't you touch me baby 'cause I'm shakin' so much, whoo!

    there is a mistake in the order of the lyrics. "Well I get so nervous when I see his eyes that shine, Gets too close and a chill runs down my spine." should come before "I don't know why she's got her claws in me, 'Cause I ain't fighting baby, can't you see, Sneaking up the stairway, running like a thief, Spend the night shaking like a leaf, Oh I remember the first time I took her to a cheap motel, Well I woke up drunk, you know I felt like Eskimo Nell."

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
