This song is about a little dude who grows up liking his childhood friend or something, but was too shy to do anything about it. I finished writing this on my birthday! So... to all of you who've made it special. Thank you. :) :)

I did layers for this one. At first it was supposed to be only the harmony, then i got carried away. hehehehe! i hope you like it!

Lyrics:
capo 3, key of c

there is this girl that ive been dreaming of,
i'm far too young to think of love
but i'm pretty much sold that she
will grow old with me

try to bring her flowers but she doesn't like them,
bugs in my hands and she tries to bite them,
she's the coolest thing that i've seen
in pink

chorus
so its the shy that turn to boldness
to hide the trembling lips
hide the stammer b'hind the glamour
of a thousand sinking pirate ships

the bad guys are coming
to Robot Pirate Isle!
i think i'll hold them off and then come back
to hold you for awhile

its ten years on i sit with you, pretend
it'd be okay to hold your hand
don't dare say a word 'bout you and me
but i imagine us

to the music on your fingertips
gentle hands around your hips
singing songs to the back of your head
dancing

so its the shy that turn to boldness
the friendship that we share
hide my heart inside a maze so thick
i couldn't find it if i dared

this island is perfect
don't wanna let you in
but you reach out, grab me, and pull me out
now i'm in like, with you again

falling in love, and i start to stumble
gotta tell you somehow, but i start to fumble
words are coming out all wrong
can't seem to say 'em like this song

reel in my thoughts calm down a bit
reality check: im over it
"what's that you said, jon?"
"oh, nevermind"

so its the shy that turn to sadness
hide the aching heart
knowing that we're friends
always together and
always apart

silence is perfect
and awkward in its beauty
there's a story in your eyes that says
everything, and
nothing at all.
