Lyrics
0:24Sometimes I don't understand
0:28What you want me to
0:30Sometimes it takes the right plan
0:33To get this confused
0:36Waiting for the moment but it's never right
0:42You lean over and whisper, "Baby, don't be shy"
0:48Take another minute, Cara, are you sure?
0:54Maybe I could be a mirror for your pleasure
0:59Shy under the weight of desire
1:08Afraid and able
1:10Shy under the weight of desire
1:19Afraid and able
1:35Diving under the sheets
1:37Under rainbow lights
1:40It was more like a cage
1:43We were forced to fight
1:46Remember when you gave me a vial of your blood?
1:52I hid it in my closet until I gave you up
1:58Sitting on a roof above our flooded city
2:03I know I shouldn't stare, but Cara, you're so pretty
2:09Shy under the weight of desire
2:17Tame turning into wild
2:23I see but don't recognize
2:29Afraid and able
2:42Shy
2:53Shy
3:09What would you have me say?
3:15God, it's a perfect save
3:21It took me thirty years and now I feel right
3:27How did we get this way?
3:52How did we get this way?
4:04How did we get this way?
4:08(Shy under the weight of design)
4:14(Tame turning into the wild)
4:20(I see but don't recognize)
4:26(Afraid and able)
Sometimes I don't understand What you want me to Sometimes it takes the right plan To get this confused Waiting for the moment but it's never right You lean over and whisper, "Baby, don't be shy" Take another minute, Cara, are you sure? Maybe I could be a mirror for your pleasure Shy under the weight of desire Afraid and able Shy under the weight of desire Afraid and able Diving 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 my closet until I gave you up Sitting on a roof above our flooded city I know I shouldn't stare, but Cara, you're so pretty Shy under the weight of desire Tame turning into wild I see but don't recognize Afraid and able Shy Shy 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? How did we get this way? How did we get this way? (Shy under the weight of design) (Tame turning into the wild) (I see but don't recognize) (Afraid and able)
