Love Is So Shy Antonio Casanova
Am I asking too much,
to lay next to you for a while?
To look you deep in the eye
and feel the heat of your smile.
This eternal love is so shy.
Just tell me what to do,
because I am so mesmerised.
You know my world has changed,
this feeling is so strange,
like my heart’s in a fire
I’m so confused…on this lonely night
I just want to hold you,
‘cos imagination is pale,
especially in these times, so stale
Then I hear your heavenly voice
as I look above, thinking I died from hurt
And it’s my angel calling.
But I could clearly see,
as passion walked up to me
came to listen to my cries,
to touch my heart and invoke new life
making me weak at my knees,
knowing she’ll always love me.
(chorus)
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
I may as well leave home.
And leap to my despair,
cos nothing matters no more,
not now there’s nothing to share.
An’ I’m weeping on my bedroom floor,
afraid I’ll drown some more
In this thing called love,
that no-one can understand.
But I felt it in your hand
that night I played your game,
thinking that I’d be alright.
So why can’t you be the same?
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
Did you think that I’d be ok,
when I drew your lovely face?
A feat that redefined time
no, I did not receive a thanks.
I showed all her friends,
but they had no idea.
I know this love is not free
but god, why let it be?
I say why choose me?
I don’t want to see!
So don’t let me be,
don’t let me be!
This love is so shy.
No, don’t let me be.
Am I reaching for the sky?
don’t you walk out on me,
til’ you tell…me…why?
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
Don’t you know how I feel?
telling me we’re just good friends,
like at night when the stars shine,
when silence will take mine…
my eyes away from you.
Because I just can’t stop,
no, I just cant stop thinking ‘bout you.
With my love so shy,
I wonder if I’ll ever pull through,
give me my right to fly,
and I’ll show you the meaning of true.
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
Don’t leave me to be,
and not respond to my prayers
cos that hurts even more.
This love is just not fair.
Oh no, tell me why? why?
This love for you is so shy.
