If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know) Lyrics

I see her online
All the time
I'm trying not to stare down there
While she talks about her tough time
Girl of your dreams
You know what I mean
There's something 'bout her stare that makes you nervous
And you say things that you don't mean

And well, I found my hotel
I called up the twins
It's seven in the morning so they won't let me in
I need to get back (get back)
I've gotta see the girl on the screen
(And then I phoned her and she said)

"Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I'm not playing with you, baby
I think that you should give it a go"
She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see, and stop thinking
If you're too shy, then let me
Too shy, then let me know"

I've been wearing nothing every time I call you
And I'm starting to feel weird about it
Sometimes it's better if you think about it
This time, I think I'm gonna drink through it
But I see her online
And don't think that I should be calling all the time
I just wanted a happy ending
And I'm pretending I don't care 'bout her stare
While she's giving me a tough time

Well, I found a motel
It looked like the bins
I think there'd been a murder so we couldn't get in
I need to get back (get back)
I've gotta see the girl on the screen

Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I'm not playing with you, baby
I think that you should give it a go
She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see, and stop thinking
If you're too shy, then let me
Too shy then let me go"
(Oh, yeah)

(I see her online)
(All the time)

She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I'm not playing with you, baby
I think that you should give it a go"
She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see, and stop thinking
If you're too shy, then let me
Too shy, then let me know"

What is the Meaning of If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know)?

Exploring the complexities of modern digital relationships, this song delves into the tension and yearning experienced when interactions are primarily online. The protagonist is infatuated with a girl he sees on screen but struggles with self-consciousness and vulnerability. The lyrics reveal his internal conflict as he navigates between desire and discomfort, particularly when she suggests that their connection might deepen if he sheds his inhibitions—literally and figuratively. His repeated attempts to see her in person underscore his longing for a more authentic connection, despite the awkwardness and uncertainty that accompany such efforts. Ultimately, the song captures the paradox of feeling close yet distant in an age where virtual interactions often replace face-to-face encounters.
