The First Picture of You
Kajagoogoo; Lotus Eaters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Try a little harder
Something's wrong, you're not naive,
You must must be strong
Oh, baby, try
Hey girl, move a little closer
'Cause you're too shy shy
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush
Modern medicine falls short of your complaints
Try a little harder
You're moving in circles,
Won't you dilate
Mmm, baby try
Hey girl, move a little closer
'Cause you're too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush
Too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too
Too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too
Too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too
Too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too
You're too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
Too shy shy
Hush hush, eye to eye
