Mabel - Shy (Lyrics)

Say what you need, wanna be that girl for you

Demon time strikes 1 o’clock
You tried to call me but you ain’t speaking up
Boy why are you so afraid, fraid
Can’t you see we’re on the same page, page

Say what you need, I can be that girl for you
Do anything for you
But we still got to do it my way, my way
You gots to get on my wave, my way

You’re just used to the kind that play hard to get
Please know I’m not here to mess with your head
See I want it just like you do
Hurry up make your move
Cos if you could read my mind
You’ll find
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
Baby say what you need, wanna be that girl for you

(Got to have your love)
Oh yeah yeah yeah
(Got to have your love)
Oh yeah yeah yeah

I’m being straight up ain’t got no time for pretence
I want you so that’s my right to defend
Don’t worry bout what your crew say, say
Be man about it be brave, brave

You’re just used to the kind that play hard to get
Please know I’m not here to mess with your head
See I want it just like you do
Hurry up make your move
Cos if you could read my mind
You’ll find
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
Baby say what you need, wanna be that girl for you

You’re just used to the kind that play hard to get
Please know I’m not here to mess with your head
See I want it just like you do
Hurry up make your move
Cos if you could read my mind
You’ll find
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
Baby say what you need, wanna be that girl for you

Be that girl for you, woah
Cos I want it just like you do, mm hurry up make a move
Cos if you could read my mind, you’d find I

(Got to have your love)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

You ain’t gotta be shy)

Baby say what you need, wanna be that girl for you
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
You ain’t gotta be shy, shy la ly ly ly
Baby say what you need, wanna be that girl for you
