Lyrics
Shy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Staring at the ceiling
Hearts and records spinning round
I’ve been lovin’ with no meaning
Running from a feeling now
And all that I want is you
Ooh don’t get me started at this time of night
Hard to keep my guard up when the feeling’s right
I don’t need nobody but for you I might
And all that I want is you
I just want to see ya, you could come over
I know ya shy, you can be shy with me
You know I need you and I’m not quite sober
I know ya shy baby, you can be shy, it’s alright
I just want to see ya, you can come over
I know ya shy, you can be shy with me
You know I need you and I’m not quite sober
I know ya shy baby, you can be shy, you can be shy with me
Met you back in August
Thought you were standoffish, coy
But you don’t have to try
I’ll read between your lines, ohhh
‘Cause all that I want is you
Oh oh oh why (you ain’t gotta hide who you are tonight)
No take your time (you can move slow with your hips on mine)
Hey you’re so shy (won’t you come ‘round here and waste my time)
‘Cause all that I want is you
I just want to see ya, you could come over
I know ya shy, you can be shy with me
You know I need you and I’m not quite sober
I know ya shy baby, you can be shy, shy it’s alright
I just want to see ya, you can come over
I know ya shy, you can be shy with me
‘Cause baby I need ya, and I’m kinda shy too
Maybe tonight baby, you can be shy, you can be shy with me
