RACHAEL YAMAGATA - Under My Skin lyrics

rate me

I hesitate to say I was bait for you

Could that be something that you all would do

I'd be lying if I did now say I wasn't intrigued

But timing is everything here

And for the moment the 'we' is reprieved

But, as I watch the girl unfold before my eyes,

I discover that I like her

Would you please get our from under my skin

'Cause I can't begin this yet

And I don't know what my intentions are

They're speaking in a different tongue

And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem

But I won't let you know

Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance

And you should go

I'm in the dance, and it's a chance,

But stay and watch awhile

I'll be singing a tune just for you with a smile

And maybe, if I'm lucky

You'll tip your hat to me, and you'll discover

That you like her

Would you please get our from under my skin

For I can't begin this yet

And I don't know what my intentions are

They're speaking in a different tongue

And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem

But I won't let you know

Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance

And you should go

Crazy as it al plays out

I think I'm lonelier than I've ever been before

'Cause I was so close

To going through that door

But I don't want to be to blame for them

I don't want to be to blame

Would you please get our from under my skin

'Cause I can't begin this yet

And I don't know what my intentions are

They're speaking in a different tongue

And deep inside, I'm not as tough as I seem

But I won't let you know

Until it's right, I'm gonna stay my distance

And you should go, go, go

Oh, would you please get out

I'm not as strong as I seem, but I won't let you know
