[Verse]
Now I lay me down to sleep
Take me up to Lovers' Leap
Throw my body off the side
There to meet my waiting bride
[Chorus]
Shake
Shake
Spray our names
Where we land
In your arms forevermore
Take my hand
[Verse]
Now I lay me down to sleep
Take me up to Lovers' Leap
Throw my body off the side
There to meet my waiting bride
[Chorus]
Shake
Shake
Spray our names
Where we land
In your arms forevermore
Take my hand
[Break]
(Shake)
(Oh, shake)
(Oh, shake)
(Shake)
(Shake, shake, shake, shake)
(Shake, shake, shake, shake)
[Chorus]
Shake
Shake
Spray our names
Where we land
In your arms forevermore
Take my hand
[Outro]
They can name the crater we make after you
And sell little statues of us
Though there isn't an artist alive
Who could get your eyes, oh

Guy Garvey:
The song was designed not to reflect but distract from the bad things happening in the world. We found seedy, gnarly grooves playing in back rooms and those pulled some dark memories and plenty of humor from me.
