[Verse 1, Ross Farrelly]
I'm drowning in her gaze
She's got me six feet deep
She's an everlasting stain
Under the heart sheets
[Pre-chorus, Josh McClorey]
She keeps me up till the morning
Baby ecstasy
She got me tossing and turning
Yeah she gets to me
I can’t control myself when she’s next to me
When she’s next to me
[Chorus, Farrelly & McClorey]
Well she’s an earthquake
Got me under the door
She’s a soul crate
She’s the full 24
She gives me Aha Shake Heartbreak
Fall to the floor
My Julia my escape
Eighty four eighty four
[Verse 2, Ross Farrelly]
Am I a week away?
Am I your sunshine?
If I’m just a rainy day
Then let the heavens fall full-time
[Pre-chorus, Josh McClorey]
And keep me up till the morning
Baby ecstasy
You got me tossing and turning
Yeah you get to me
I can’t control myself when you’re next to me
When you’re next to me
[Chorus, Farrelly & McClorey]
Well she’s an earthquake
Got me under the door
She’s a soul crate
She’s the full 24
She gives me Aha Shake Heartbreak
Fall to the floor
My Julia my escape
Eighty four eighty four
[Breakdown, McClorey]
So keep me up till the morning
Baby ecstasy
You’ve got me tossing and turning
Yeah you get to me
I can’t control myself when you’re next to me
When you’re next to me
[Chorus, Farrelly & McClorey]
Well she’s an earthquake
Got me under the door
She’s a soul crate
She’s the full 24
She gives me Aha Shake Heartbreak
Fall to the floor
My Julia my escape
Eighty four eighty four
[Outro, Farrelly & McClorey]
Well she’s an earthquake
Got me under the door
She’s a soul crate
She’s a full 24
She gives me Aha Shake Heartbreak
Fall to the floor
My Julia my escape
Eighty four eighty four
