I walk a mile with a smile.
I don't know I don't care where I am,
But I know it's all right.
Jump the tracks, can't get back.
I don't know anyone round here,
But I'm safe this time.
'Cause when you tell me, tell me, tell me
Stupid things like you do,
Yes I have to, have to, have to
Change the rules; I can't lose.
'Cause I shiver, I just break up.
When I'm near you it all gets out of hand.
Yes I shiver, I get bent up.
There's no way that
I know you'll understand.
We talk and talk, round it all.
Who'd have thought we'd end up here?
But I'm feeling fine.
In a rush never trust, you'll be there
If I'd only stop and take my time.
'Cause with you I'm running, running, running
Somewhere I can't get to.
Yes I have to, have to, have to
Change the rules; I'm with you.
'Cause I shiver, I just break up.
When I'm near you it all gets out of hand.
Yes I shiver, I get bent up.
There's no way that
I know you'll understand.
What if you get off at the next stop?
Would you just wave as I'm drifting off?
And if I never saw you again
Could I (could I) keep all (all) of this (of this) inside?
'Cause I shiver, I just break up.
When I'm near you it all gets out of hand.
Yes I shiver, I get bent up.
There's no way that
I know you'll understand.
(I'm running but my heart won't keep up.
This feeling that I'm feeling is too much.
There's nothing that can slow me down now.
I'm running but I'll catch you somehow.)
I shiver. I shiver.
Yes I shiver, I just break up.
When I'm near you it all gets out of hand.
Yes I shiver, I get bent up.
There's no way that
I know you'll understand.
I've listened about 10'000 times to 'Torn'. 'Shiver' instantly caught me... then I found it wasn't that great. Now, 2 years after its release, I'm coming back to it, bought it online and have been listening to it three times a day.
Like someone said above, Nathalie has a really amazing control over every word she sings, alternating between caressing, edgy, whispering and what not. Fortunately, superior recording quality renders her subtle interpretation faithfully.
The arrangements are nothing revolutionary, but do their job in supporting and underlining the quite beautiful sines of the melody.
I have finally found who Nathalie's timbre and inflections remind me of: Olivia Newton-John in some of those ballads she was so excelling at... does that make sense to anyone?

I didn't feel this was as good as her previous stuff at my first listen, but I soon found myself singing the chorus at random moments. I love it now, totally addictive. Even better because she actually co-wrote it. Beautiful lyrics, beautiful tune.
I really enjoy this song. I am totally addicted to it

This is a great song, which is really catchy and powerful. It really makes you think about what your listening to. Natalies' voice is amazingly controlled and has many unique qualities e.g. strength, good range, clearness and dynamiques. This song and artist are definately in my top ten. - Catherine from Muswell Hill
Natalie Imbruglia's voice is beautiful to listen to. The notes in the chorus are very catchy and the repetitiveness in the song also makes it hard to forget. Do yourself a favour and listen to this amazing song.
