Why am I so Shy?

Why am I so shy?

Oh why? Oh why? Oh why?

I see lots of attractive ladies, nice dresses, pretty faces,

I am not overly choosy, various heights, different races.

When it comes to stepping up and speaking to her,

My lips go all aquiver.

I cough and splutter, I stumble and stutter,

And when I speak it comes out in a mutter.

I can never find the right words to say,

I end up asking for the time of day.

I think of lots of things I could tell her,

But I only ever get close enough to smell her.

I sometimes think I will die alone,

Still a virgin and dry as a bone.

I just don’t know how to get over my nerves,

Girls from me just tend to swerve.

So why am I so shy?

If I am feeling brave I can just about say ‘Hi’.

I find it hard to make conversation,

I am full of fear and trepidation.

I just want a girlfriend, someone to love,

I am always praying to Him up above.

I don’t really care, blonde or brunette,

If I can get anyone I won’t be upset.
