Can't Take It In
Imogen Heap · Other Songs - Imogen Heap
Every hair on my body has got a thing for this place
Oh, Empty my heart i've got to make room for this feeling
So much bigger than me
It couldn't be any more beautiful
I can't take it in
Waitless in love, unravelling
For all that's to come
and all thats ever been
We back to the point
With every shame and sound
Lets make it a good one
It couldn't be any more beautiful
aha, aha
I couldn't be any more beautiful
I can't take it in
la, ooowooo, I can't take it in
I can't take it in
la, ooowooo
I can't take it in
ooowooo
It couldn't be any more beautiful
It couldn't be any more beautiful
I can't take it in
All that i wonder
All that i ever need
All that i wonder
So beautiful
Can't Take It In
