Local Natives - Shy lyrics

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)
