Why Am I So Shy?

Jay Siegel, Philip Margo, Mitchell Margo, Hank Medress

[Intro]
(So shy am I
Oh why, oh why, am I so shy?
So shy am I
Oh why, oh why, am I so shy?)

[Verse 1]
How can I make him mine?
How can I let him know?
How can I ever tell him
That I just love him so?

[Chorus]
Why, why, why, oh why
Why am I so shy?
(Why am I, oh why, oh why am I so shy?)

[Verse 2]
Why don't I walk right over
And say just how I feel?
I'm always dreaming of him
I wish my dreams were real

[Chorus]
Why, why, why, oh why
Why am I so shy?
(Why am I so shy?)

[Bridge]
The first time that I saw him
I didn't even speak a word
Now, this is the second time
I guess I'll wait for the third

[Verse 3]
I'm so afraid to tell him
The words that I rehearsed
I don't suppose I'll tell him
Unless he tells me first

[Chorus]
Why, why, why, oh why
Why am I so shy?
(Why am I, oh why, oh why am I so shy?)

[Outro]
(So shy) Why am I so shy? (Oh why, oh why am I so shy?)
(So shy) Why am I so shy? (Oh why?)
