Don't Be So Shy
Boomkat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
[CHORUS:]
You're looking at me
I'm looking at you
Boy make your move
Don't be so shy
You're dancing with me
Boy make your move
Don't be so shy
Top down on a sunny day (just like that)
The love songs that I used to play (you know you)
Touch my heart straight to my soul (to my soul)
It feels so good, I wanna lose control boy
You got me spinning 'round and 'round
'Round and 'round
Can't even tell which way is up or down baby
Is there anybody (is there anybody)
Is there anybody (is there anybody)
To get my feet back on the ground
[CHORUS]
How about dinner tonight?
A little wine and some candle light?
Like you walked right outta my dream
Can't believe this happened to me
All the while
It's like you cast a spell on me
Your gentle touch is ecstasy, oh yeah
Is there anybody (is there anybody)
Is there anybody (is there anybody)
To get my feet back on the ground, oh
[CHORUS 2x]
Don't be shy
Don't be so shy
[CHORUS 3x]
The song "Don't Be So Shy" by Boomkat is a playful and flirty invitation to a potential lover to make a move. The singer encourages the boy to stop being shy and dance with her, to take her out to dinner and sweep her off her feet. The lyrics evoke a sense of excitement and anticipation, as the singer seems to be enjoying the attention she's receiving from this boy who has caught her eye.
The first verse sets the scene of a sunny day and the love songs that used to touch the singer's heart, leading her to feel a desire to lose control. The chorus is a catchy refrain that emphasizes the singer's desire for the boy to make a move and not be shy. The second verse explicitly asks the boy out to dinner and expresses disbelief at how lucky the singer feels to have found someone who seems to have walked right out of her dream. The bridge expresses how the boy's touch feels like a spell that has cast itself on the singer, enveloping her in an ecstatic feeling that makes it hard for her to tell which way is up or down.
Overall, the lyrics of "Don't Be So Shy" paint a picture of a playful and exciting romance, with the singer encouraging the boy to take the lead and make a move, while also expressing her own excitement and desire. The song has a light and upbeat sound with a catchy chorus that invites the listener to dance along and feel the excitement of new love.
