SHY
(Pine / Loma)


Cathy Carr (with Joe Reisman's Orch. & Chorus) - 1959



Every day I go out of my way
So he'll see me passing by
So near and yet we've never met
Oh, why am I so shy

When I'm alone, I 've been tempted to phone
But I'm so afraid to try
He doesn't know I love him so
Oh, why am I so shy

It's easy to dream the way I do
To be loved, to be held, to be kissed
But how can my dreams ever come true
When he doesn't know I exist

Someday I know he'll just whisper 'Hello'
And I'll run to meet the guy
And when some night he holds me tight
I'll be glad that I was shy

Yes, I'll be glad I was shy
(Oh-oh so shy)
