So Shy Tonight

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] Caught me off guard when you walked in slow Like a summer light in the afterglow I was cool for a second, then I lost my line Now I’m staring at the floor and pretending I’m fine You got that smile that makes me freeze Little butterflies in the in-between breeze I rehearse my words, but they fade away When you say my name, I don’t know what to say [Pre-Chorus] I try to play it casual But my voice goes soft and small Every time you get too close I forget it all My hands get shaky, shaky My thoughts go hazy, hazy I wanna tell you something But it’s driving me crazy [Chorus] I’m so shy tonight, tonight When you’re in my sight, my sight I act like I’m alright, alright, alright But you make my heart go sky-high I’m so shy tonight, tonight Can’t hide it if I tried, I tried I wanna say it right But I just smile and close my eyes [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, I’m shy Oh-oh, don’t know why Oh-oh, I try But my heart keeps running wild Oh-oh, I’m shy Oh-oh, when you’re nearby Oh-oh, I lie Saying “I’m fine,” but I’m not fine [Verse 2] Texting back like I’m not overthinking Double-checking every little thing I’m sending I write “hey” then erase it, then I start again Now I’m stuck in the loop like it never will end You’re so easy, I’m so not You make my whole world pause a lot I can’t act cool, I can’t pretend Every little glance just pulls me in [Pre-Chorus] I try to play it casual But my voice goes soft and small Every time you get too close I forget it all My hands get shaky, shaky My thoughts go hazy, hazy I wanna tell you something But it’s driving me crazy [Chorus] I’m so shy tonight, tonight When you’re in my sight, my sight I act like I’m alright, alright, alright But you make my heart go sky-high I’m so shy tonight, tonight Can’t hide it if I tried, I tried I wanna say it right But I just smile and close my eyes [Bridge] Maybe one day I’ll be brave Maybe one day I’ll make my move All this quiet in my chest Is just waiting for you So if I stumble, let me If I blush, don’t tease me I’m not made of stone I just need a little time to breathe [Final Chorus] I’m so shy tonight, tonight When you’re in my sight, my sight I act like I’m alright, alright, alright But you make my heart go sky-high I’m so shy tonight, tonight Now I don’t wanna hide, I hide If you reach for me this time I might finally let it shine [Outro] Mm-mm I’m so shy tonight Yeah But maybe that’s alright
