Got taken in
We feasted on olives from the fridge
We stood alone everyday
We made love all afternoon
'Til the stars went blue

You wrote a ballad, we dine, on oysters and champagne
That's what it seemed like
We connect in so many ways
So easy, I must say

Why am I so shy around you?
Why am I so shy?
Why do I take care to astound you?
Why do I even try?

Another rainy day
We sat inside by the radiator watchin' old black and white films
Where everybody sang
You played in my solitude
You didn't get dressed 'til two

The rain, says all, I wrote this song on my guitar
But it didn't turn out right
So we just connected in other ways
So easy, I must say

Why am I so shy around you?
Why am I so shy?
Why do I take care to astound you?
Why do I even try?

Why am I so shy around?
Oh, why am I so shy?
Why do I take care?
Why do I even try?
