Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't understand
Why you want me too
Sometimes it takes the right plan
To get less confused
Waitin' for the moment but it's never right
You lean over and whisper
Baby, don't be shy
[Verse 2]
Take another minute, Cara, are you sure?
Maybe I can be a mirror for your pleasure
[Verse 3]
Shy under the weight of design
Afraid and able
Shy under the weight of design
Afraid and able
[Verse 4]
Divin' under the sheets
Under rainbow lights
It was more like a cage
We were forced to fight
Remember when you gave me
A vial of your blood?
I hid it in a closet until I gave you up
Sittin' on a roof above our flooded city
I know I shouldn't stare
But, Cara, you're so pretty
[Verse 5]
Shy under the weight of design
Tame turnin' into the wild
I see but don't recognize
Afraid and able
[Verse 6]
Shy
Shy
[Verse 7]
What would you have me say?
God, it's a perfect save
It took me thirty years and now I feel right
How did we get this way?
[Verse 8]
How did we get this way?
How did we get this way?
[Verse 9]
(Shy under the weight of design)
(Tame turnin' into the wild)
(I see but don't recognize)
(Afraid and able)
