I'm Shy Lyrics

George Formby I'm Shy

I'm just dumb, the words won't come, my tongue I cannot find,
I feel so scared, I've never dared, to say what's on my mind.
Why can't I, tell you the way I feel, let loose my sex appeal
Why? Because I'm shy.

Why can't I, make love like other guys, flash with my wicked eyes,
Why? Because I'm shy
Oh what a sin if I never win my ideal,
You'll never guess and I can't express how I feel, terribly bashful

Why can't I? Do what a lover should, start while the goings good,
Why? Because I'm shy.
Why can't I, kiss girls and run away, make love another day
Why? Because I'm shy.

Why can't I, go after big romance kiss girls and take a chance
Why? Because I'm shy.
Oh what a sin if I never win my ideal,
You'll never guess and I can't express how I feel, terribly bashful

Why can't I, set flappers hearts afire, fill 'em with mad desire,
Why? Because I'm shy.
