lyrics

A shyness struck at the heart of me
My thoughts stuttered out of time
A reticence of spirit that won't let me be

Brain cried out an indiscriminate plea
Let me reveal my true self, but
A shyness struck at the heart of me

When those around you converse free
But my studied wit leaves me stranded
A reticence of spirit that won't let me be

Under battered canvas I cursed my family tree
And the genes that steal words from my mouth
A shyness struck at the heart of me

I turn my eyes inside so I can see
The distorted machinations of my being
A reticence of spirit that won't let me be

So I left the temporary city of Glastonbury
Brimming with wonder, and regret, and as always -
A shyness struck at the heart of me
A reticence of spirit that won't let me be
