Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh

I just say hello 'cause I'm far too slow
To ever think of anything to say
Beside, you're near, I just get nowhere
And inside me all my feelings seem to stay

I'm too shy to fall in love
Too shy am I to try
I'm too shy to fall in love
You're the reason why

Oh, I just dream of an endless scheme
How to tell you that I want you for myself?
Though I know inside that my foolish pride
Will keep me locked up here forever on the shelf

I'm too shy to fall in love
Too shy am I to try
I'm too shy to fall in love
You're the reason why

Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh

Yeah
I'm too shy to fall in love
Too shy am I to try
I'm too shy to fall in love
You're the reason why

Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh
All right
Ahhhhhhhhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahhhhhh
Yeah, hey.
