Nina Valentine - Shy Hearts Lyrics

I'm walkin' down the street, head down low
Can't speak up, my words don't flow
Stuck in my shell, afraid to shine
Missin' out on love, every single time
Tryin' to break free from this silent fear
But every step forward, I shed a tear
Stuck through the shadows, can't find my way
Lost in the darkness, day by day
Love feels so close, yet I'm held back
Afraid to step forward, courage
My heart longs to speak, but my voice stays still
Trapped in my shell, against my will
I watch from afar, as love passes by
Too afraid to reach out, too afraid to try
Heartache and longing, my constant friends
Stuck in this cycle, until the bitter end
Dreamin' of love, but it's out of reach
Locked inside, can't find the key to breach
Wishin' for courage, to break these chains
But in the end, it's all in vain
Love feels so close, yet I'm held back
Afraid to step forward, courage
My heart longs to speak, but my voice stays still
Trapped in my shell, against my will
