Can be my man any day now,
Can be my man any ol' how.
Can walk me late through streets of town,
Can make me wait, can take me down

CH: Shy baby, shy baby
You never speak of love
Why baby, why baby
Ain't you ever loved?

I show you things if you can't see;
I do the things you want of me;
I stay by you, can trust me blind,
Can love me blue and you'll find

CH: Shy baby, shy baby,
I'll never speak of love
Why baby, why baby
Have I never loved?

BR: In a dream, you came to me
Quite some years ago
I recognized your goofy smile,
Your crazy hair and your heart hung low

CH: Shy baby shy baby
Why did you have to go?
Why baby, why baby
Will I ever know?

2nd Ch: In a dream you came to me
Quite some years ago
I recognized your goofy smile
Your crazy hair your heart hung low
And in that dream when you came to me
All those tears ago
You kissed me in the dead of night
And my, my, my heart hung low!

Shy baby, shy baby
I cannot see what to do
Shy baby, shy baby
I cannot belong to anyone but you…

Shy baby shy baby
Why did you have to go?
Why baby, why baby
Will I ever know?
