  • Shake it up is all that we know
    Using the bodies up as we going
    i'm waking up to fantasy
    The shades all around
    aren't the colors we used to see.

    Broken ice still melts in the sun
    And times that are broken
    can often be one again.
    We're soul alone
    And soul really matters to me
    Take a look around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    Reaching out for something to hold
    Looking for a love
    where the climate is cold.
    Manic moves and drowsy dreams
    Or living in the middle
    between the two extremes.

    Smoking guns hot to the touch
    Would cool down if we didn't use them so much.
    We're soul alone
    And soul really matters to me
    Too much.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    Out of touch
    Out of touch.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around.

    You're out of touch
    I'm out of time
    But I'm out of my head
    when you're not around. Writer/s: Daryl F Hall, John William Oates
