When I first saw him standin' there I longed to speak but did not dare Something inside whispered to me You'd better move in carefully And then he smiled and turned away That told me all he could not say That's when I knew he wanted me too But I had to do some breakin' through He's so shy He's so shy That sweet little boy who caught my eye He's so shy He's so shy And he's much too good to let get by, Oh yes he is Now holding him gently through the night Nothin' has ever felt so right And I'm so glad I took the time That I had to take to make him mine He can still do things to my heart Just like he did right from the start Each time I see that quality That never stops attracting me He's so shy (so good looking) He's so shy (he really got me going) That sweet little boy who caught my eye He's so shy (I'm so glad I got to know him) He's so shy ('cause he's one in a million) And I'll love him until the day I die Oh, yes I will He's so shy (that's why I love my baby) He's so shy (you know he's driving me crazy) That sweet little boy who caught my eye He's so shy (I've got a long time to know him) He's so shy (I'm so glad I got to show him) That I'll love him until the day I die, oh yeah He's so shy Oooh-wee, oooh-wee, baby He's so shy Oooh-wee, oooh-wee, baby He's so shy Oooh-wee, oooh-wee, baby He's so shy
