So Shy

"So Shy"

Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.

Tonight I'm feelin' lonely and I want you by my side

I'd like to call you up, but I've just got too much pride

I think it's time I tell you how I really feel inside

Because I know that these feelings I can no longer hide

I'm gonna go out without you tonight, but I know it won't feel right

I don't know why a guy like me can be so shy

I used to be the life of the party, but now I don't even want to try

With all those other girls before, all I wanted was to have some fun

I was gone the next day, I never called, one night and I was done

Could it be that I'm in love for the very first time?

I guess that's why a guy like me can be so shy

Tomorrow will be a new day, but tonight I wanna die

I'm finding myself wonderin' if you might say goodbye

So many different feelings, can someone tell me why?

Whenever we're together, you make me feel like I can fly

I'm gonna go out without you tonight, but I know it won't feel right

I don't know why a guy like me can be so shy

We're so new, I don't know what to do

And I don't want to make you cry

Now somehow it's different, ever since I met you

I don't want to socialize, I'm afraid of what I might do

Could it be that I'm in love for the very first time?

I guess that's why a guy like me can be so shy

I don't want to come on too strong, I don't know the right thing to do

I'm trapped between my old self, and the one who only wants you

I'm gonna go out without you tonight, but I know it won't feel right

I don't know why a guy like me can be so shy

Do you feel the same about me as I do about you?

Or do you love another guy?

Now when I'm out, I don't trust myself

When you're not there next to me

I know we don't have a commitment, but now I'm scared to be free

Could it be that I'm in love for the very first time?

I guess that's why a guy like me can be so shy
