You can be the shy boy if you want We were in the club You were looking on Whose soul are you running from Riding high You can be the shy boy with that haunt Tongue tied with that lonesome blood Burning desire for the only one On your mind Soon enough In a moment’s notice Losing touch Please don't disturb this See I'm fine Time is on my side You can be the shy boy if you want Head tucked down to the ground Will you ever hear the sound Of my heaven blue Shy boy Such a haunt Talking about the shy boy Such a haunt Soon enough In a moment’s notice Losing touch Please don't disturb me See I'm fine Time is on my side On my side Time is on my side Time is on my side On my side Time is on my side Shy boy

Losing sleep alone Love's enterprise Some call it a curse Call it a sign It's left me in reminisce I won't weigh you down I long for your lips I long for your kiss I'm coming all the way just to tell you this I'm coming all this way just to show you this So Katy bar the door I've made my promise Getting back to you All by myself Throw your wish in the well Whatever it takes All I need this time is you I have no idea why I talk on the telephone I know I'm talking this to death it’s what I do I know now I finally understand Getting back to you is my only command I'll wait for you I long for your lips I long for your kiss I'll keep my promise I will have your kiss All I need this time is getting back to you All I need this time stay by your side All I need this time is getting back to you All I need this time is getting back to you All I need this time is getting back to you

about

The "Shy Boy" dual single is dance floor ready, with the playfully grooving, disco-pop gem “Shy Boy” backed by “Getting Back To You,” a hopeful and uplifting romantic nu disco track with shades of Beatlesque magic. Jacks penned the first for “all the shy boys out there who feel underestimated” and the latter about the simple joy of returning to one’s true love after a period of longing.
