I hesitate to say I was bait for you Could that be something that you all would do I'd be lying if I did now say I wasn't intrigued But timing is everything here And for the moment the 'we' is reprieved But, as I watch the girl unfold before my eyes, I discover that I like her Would you please get our from under my skin 'Cause I can't begin this yet And I don't know what my intentions are They're speaking in a different tongue And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem But I won't let you know Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance And you should go I'm in the dance, and it's a chance, But stay and watch awhile I'll be singing a tune just for you with a smile And maybe, if I'm lucky You'll tip your hat to me, and you'll discover That you like her Would you please get our from under my skin For I can't begin this yet And I don't know what my intentions are They're speaking in a different tongue And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem But I won't let you know Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance And you should go Crazy as it al plays out I think I'm lonelier than I've ever been before 'Cause I was so close To going through that door But I don't want to be to blame for them I don't want to be to blame Would you please get our from under my skin 'Cause I can't begin this yet And I don't know what my intentions are They're speaking in a different tongue And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem But I won't let you know Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance And you should go, go, go Oh, would you please get out I'm not as strong as I seem, but I won't let you know
