When I see that boy walk by

He's kind of slim, kind of tall, kind of just my type

All the girls say he's really shy... shy!

 

If I could find some courage yeah, then I could just be myself

The boy is always on my mind, I don't wanna be with no one else

 

Now I've fallen for a shy boy, what a dumb thing to do

Cos he'll never be my boy

Cos I'm just a shy girl too!

 

When I see that boy walk by

There's a feeling I get that can't be denied

It's like a heartache that won't subside

 

If I could find some courage yeah, then I could just be myself

The boy is always on my mind, I don't wanna be with no one else

 

Now I've fallen for a shy boy, what a dumb thing to do

Cos he'll never be my boy

Cos I'm just a shy girl too!

 

I put the milk bottles out, as you were passing my house

I didn't know what to say

My feet wouldn't move, so what else could I do

I just turned and I looked away

 

And I started beating up myself

I can't blame anyone else

I'm useless and there's no defence

I need to buy a bag of confidence
