Lyric

She sits at the café, her words tied in a knot

Heartstrings tangled up in the feelings she’s got

The blush on her cheeks, like a sunset’s sweep

Her secrets are locked where her melody keeps

Oh, the music plays what her lips cannot say

A soft little tune carries her heart away

In the rhythm of shy, where the glances stay

The melody whispers, "Don’t drift too far away."

Her hands find the table, her voice stays shy

But the hum of the sound lifts a dream to the sky

She stammers the start of a sentence or two

But the song fills the gaps where her courage is due

Oh, the music plays what her lips cannot say

A soft little tune carries her heart away

In the rhythm of shy, where the glances stay

The melody whispers, “Don’t drift too far away.”

Her eyes steal a look when the trumpet croons

While the drums brush softly, like feet in the dunes

She turns, oh so coy, yet the notes expose

What the soul tries to hide when the feeling grows

Oh, the music plays what her lips cannot say

A soft little tune carries her heart away

In the rhythm of shy, where the glances stay

The melody whispers, “Stay with me, don't stray.”
