Wish You Were Shy Lyrics

if i could have in my fingertips

what;s on the tip of my tongue
i'd just speak your name and sweep you away

i'd want to take you today

(but) there's a social religion

that stands as our division

so i sit and i pray

that before i get the nerve no one will take you away

ohiwish you were shy just like me

but i can't even look you in the eye
i wish you were shy

but if you were

we might never be together

i strain for your attention

can't we forget about convention

i've read all the books
please can't you read my mind

you might like what you'll find

i know i

shouldn't talk just to myself

if i

could only get past the first word

oh i don't know
