Gilbert O`sullivan Shy Lyrics

Shy Lyrics

Oh, every time I pass you I'm

 Inclined to look away

 I don't know why, but some day

 I will turn my head and say

 Excuse me miss, but this glove is 

 it the one that you've just dropped

 And you'll reply by saying ?f course?br> or in as many words ?et lost?p>
I've never been successful 

 I mean with girls of my own age

 They like the food and the wines I choose

 But after that I'm afraid

 That in the art of making love

 I'm really so naive it's not true

 I usually pretend I'm too tired

 And then fall asleep as proof

 

 And by the sound of things

 it looks as though I'm doomed

 To spend the rest of my life living in one room

 Dreaming of how one cold and windy night quite cooly

 Sophia Loren seduced me

 

 My name is John, I? twenty one

 I drive a Ford Cortina estate

 If you'd care to join me in my room

 I'll show you my license plate
