Shy - Local Natives
Lyrics by:Kelcey Ayer/Ryan Hahn/Taylor Rice
Composed by:Kelcey Ayer/Ryan Hahn/Taylor Rice/Matthew Frazier/Nik Ewing
Sometimes I don't understand
Why you want me to
Sometimes it takes the right plan
To get less confused
Waiting for the moment but it's never right
You lean over and whisper Baby don't be shy
Take another minute Cara are you sure
Maybe I can be a mirror for your pleasure
Shy under the weight of design
Afraid and able
Shy under the weight of design
Afraid and able
Diving under the sheets
Under rainbow lights
It was more like a cage
We were forced to fight
Remember when you gave me a vial of your blood
I hid it in my closet until I gave you up
Sitting on a roof above our flooded city
I know I shouldn't stare but Cara you're so pretty
Shy under the weight of design
Tame turning into the wild
I see but don't recognize
Afraid and able
Shy
Shy
What would you have me say
God it's a perfect save
It took me thirty years and now I feel right
How did we get this way
How did we get this way
How did we get this way
Shy under the weight of design
Tame turning into the wild
I see but don't recognize
Afraid and able
