There’s a gut wrenching pain in my chest,
At first I thought It was nought but a test,
Till it ripped it tugged it stabbed at my heart,
And I knew for sure ‘twas we’re both apart.

I love her,
But I’m just to shy,
And I don’t know why.

She looks at me,
And what does she see,
Nothing but a friend,
But ‘round life’s hidden bends,
She’d see I loved her, and she was braking my heart.

I love her,
But I’m just to shy,
And I don’t know why.

I want to tell her that I love her so,
But as I walk to her I stand on my toe,
It’s just I have no guts,
As towards me she struts,

I love her,
But I’m just to shy,
And I don’t know why.

Now at her death bed I stand,
And come to realise,
That I had not found,
In her own eyes;
She loved me too,
And now I feel damned.

I loved her,
But I was just to shy,
And I still don’t know why.
