[Chorus:]
I'm just a little bit shy
Dam dam dubi do
Tell me what can I do
I'm just a little bit shy
Dam dam dubi do
I really don't know why
I'm just a little bit shy
I try to tell you
Uh that I love you
What can I do do
What can I do
Obsession forever
Uh now or never
What can I do do
What can I say
What can I do
Dam dam dubi do
Tell me what can I do
I'm just a little bit shy
Dam dam dubi do
I really don't know why
I'm just a little bit shy
Dam dam dubi do
Tell me what can I do
I'm just a little bit shy
Dam dam dubi do
I really don't know why
I'm so excited when I see you smile [2x]
I can not have you
And I'll never leave you
What can I say say
What can I say
You make me mad
And you make me sad, babe
What can I do do
What can I say
What can I do do
Dam dam dubi do




You are so beautiful
I'm just a little bit shy

The song is built on the chorus that is repeated throughout the song, "I'm just a little bit shy, tell me what can I do." She thinks she is obsessed with the person she is in love with, and it is now or never to express her admiration. At the same time, she's not sure if her love is reciprocated, which makes her even shyer.


The lyrics, "I'm so excited when I see you smile, I can't have you and I'll never leave you," suggest that the girl can't contain her emotions when she is around this person. The conflicting feelings of wanting to express admiration but feeling shy are relatable to many people. The line, "You make me mad, and you make me sad, babe," shows that it is challenging to manage her feelings of love and shyness at the same time.


In conclusion, the song is a relatable expression of feelings for someone a person admires but feels shy to express their admiration. The chorus' repetition underlines the girl's desperate desire to ask for help to overcome her shyness and express her love.
