1
The club isn't the best place to find a lover so the bar is where I go
2
Me and my friends sat at the table doing shots, tricking fast and then we talk slow
3
And we come over and start up a conversation with just me
4
and trust me I'll give it a chance Now I'll take my hand, stop it, band the man on the jukebox and then we start to dance And now I'm singing like,
5
girl, you know I want your love Your love was handmade for somebody like me Come on now, follow my lead I may be crazy,
6
don't mind me Say, boy, let's not talk too much Grab on my waist and put that body on me Come on now, follow my lead Come on now,
7
follow my lead I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet do
8
Although my heart is falling too
9
I'm in love with your body Last night you were in my room
10
Now my bedsheets smell like you Every day discovering something brand new
11
I'm in love with your body I'm in love
12
with your body I'm in love with your body I'm in love with your body Every day discovering something brand new
13
I'm in love with the shape of you When we came, we let the story begin We're going out on our first date You and me are thrifty,
14
so go all you can eat Fill up your bag and I fill up the plate
15
We talk for hours and hours about the sweet and the sour And how your family's doing okay
16
And even getting a taxi, kissing the backseat Till the driver make the radio play And I'm singing like,
17
girl, you know I want your love Your love was handmade for somebody like me Come on now, follow my lead I may be crazy,
18
don't mind me Say boy, let's not talk too much Grab on my waist and put that body on me Come on now, follow my lead Come on now,
19
follow my lead I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet do
20
But what my heart is falling to I'm in love with your body
21
Last night you were in my room Now my bedsheets smell like you We'll be discovering something brand new
22
I'm in love with your body I'm in love
23
with your body I'm in love with your body I'm in love with your body We'll be discovering something brand new
24
I'm in love with the shape of you Come on be my baby, come on
25
I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet I'm in love with your body
26
Every day discovery, something brand new I'm in love with the shape of you

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
