I'm A Shy Guy by Nat King Cole

(nathaniel cole)


I'm just a shy guy,
My, i'm a 'fraid-to-try guy
No lie.
There's a gal that i idolize
But i just can't seem to hypnotize.


And when she pets me,
You betcha, it gets me.
And everytime i hold her hand,
I'm just too shy to say the things i plan.


Everytime she's close to me,
My heart is filled with ecstasy,
And like a dope, i let the chance slip by.


There, i should have told her then
But all i did was sit and grin,
And i ended up so mad that i could cry.


'cause i'm a shy guy
Wish i was a sly guy
Then i could say, "baby, baby, i love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
