not be able to say it out loud
But I've been watching you from
across the crowd, babe
Just as soon as I get the chance,
I'm happy to be there when you want to dance.
Got to tell you how I feel,
words won't say it, but my body will.
I get so shy when I stand in school
I get tongue -tied when
I have to speak, oh
Except that I get tongue -tied
I can't move my feet
Some other guys might hand you a line
If you like sweet talk, I guess that's fine
Girl, I won't deceive you
with grandiose plans
When I put it to you,
you'll know I'm your man
Got to tell you how I feel
Words won't say it, but my body will
It's so shy when I'm standing still I get
downtight when I have to speak
I said that I could
I can move my feet
Tell me why
Tell me why it should be
That you have this effect on me
What should I do?
What should I be shy with you?
Well, I guess body
English will just have to do
Some people sit and talk for days
Well, as we say,
funky music's a -passin' great
Once we start, we shake it all out
But give them something to talk about
Got to tell you how I feel
Words won't say it, but my body will
I get so shy when I'm standing still
I get tongue -tied when I have to speak
Said that I get tongue -tied
I can't move my feet
I get tongue -tied when
I have to speak
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I get tongue -tied
I can't move my feet
You
