I hesitate to say I was bait for you
|
Could that be something that you all would do
|
I'd be lying if I did now say I wasn't intrigued
|
But timing is everything here
|
And for the moment the 'we' is reprieved
|
But, as I watch the girl unfold before my eyes,
|
I discover that I like her
|
|
Would you please get our from under my skin
|
'Cause I can't begin this yet
|
And I don't know what my intentions are
|
They're speaking in a different tongue
|
And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem
|
But I won't let you know
|
Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance
|
And you should go
|
|
I'm in the dance, and it's a chance,
|
But stay and watch awhile
|
I'll be singing a tune just for you with a smile
|
And maybe, if I'm lucky
|
You'll tip your hat to me, and you'll discover
|
That you like her
|
|
|
Would you please get our from under my skin
|
For I can't begin this yet
|
And I don't know what my intentions are
|
They're speaking in a different tongue
|
And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem
|
But I won't let you know
|
Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance
|
And you should go
|
|
Crazy as it al plays out
|
I think I'm lonelier than I've ever been before
|
'Cause I was so close
|
To going through that door
|
But I don't want to be to blame for them
|
I don't want to be to blame
|
|
Would you please get our from under my skin
|
'Cause I can't begin this yet
|
And I don't know what my intentions are
|
They're speaking in a different tongue
|
And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem
|
But I won't let you know
|
Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance
|
And you should go, go, go
|
Oh, would you please get out
|
I'm not as strong as I seem, but I won't let you know
|
