Lyrics Shaking You - Elaine Paige

Why did I have to care for you?
When I should have known to stay away
Oh, why was I there for you?
I don't know how I lost my touch
I never believed that I could ever
Want somebody's love so much
Time can shake me loose from the blue
But who would know I'd be this slow
Shaking you

I don't know who I'm rooting for
I just let the arrows go and hope
I know what I'm shooting for
Don't say that you'll be there for me
If you care for me
You'll be gone
'Cause I don't have the strength
To be this strong
Tell me what to do
Who knew it'd take me this long
Shaking you

Now I'm waiting to hit the ground
'Cause I'm painting my love for you
In the corners I can't get around
Time can shake me loose from the blue
But who would know I'd be this slow
Shaking you.
