Shy Lyrics - Sonata Arctica

I can see how you are beautiful, can you feel my eyes on you,
I'm shy and turn my head away
Working late in diner Citylight, I see that you get home alright
Make sure that you can't see me, hoping you will see me

Sometimes I'm wondering why you look me and you blink your eye
You can't be acting like my Dana (can you)
I see you in Citylight diner serving all those meals and then
I see reflections of me in your eye, oh please

Talk to me, show some pity
You touch me in many, many ways
But I'm shy can't you see

Obsessed by you, your looks, well, anyway "I would any day die for you",
I write on paper erased away
Still I sit in diner Citylight, drinking coffee or reading lies
Turn my head and I can see you, could that really be you

Sometimes I'm wondering why you look me and you blink your eye
You can't be acting like my Dana?
I see your beautiful smile and I would like to run away from
Reflections of me in your eyes, oh please

Talk to me, show some pity
You touch me in many, many ways
But I'm shy can't you see

I see, can't have you, can't leave you, there 'cause I must sometimes see you
And I don't understand how you can keep me in chains
And every waking hour, I feel you taking power From me and I can't live
Repeating the scenery over again

Sometimes I'm wondering why you look me and you blink your eye
You can't be acting like my Dana?
I see your beautiful smile and I would like to run away from
Reflections of me in your eyes, oh please

Talk to me, show some pity
You touch me in many, many ways
But I'm shy can't you see,

Oh baby, Talk to me, show some pity
You touch me in many, many ways
But I'm shy can't you, I'm shy can't you, I'm shy can't you see

Just my theory | Reviewer: Brenda Rayne | 4/19/13

Letters to Dana sounds like Dana and him knew each other, they were friends and that led him to love her, but like every other perfect picture reality set in, Dana grew up wanted to see the world and she left, he was left behind wishing and I know personally feelings never leave when you wonder what would have happened, whereas in shy which I think is the follow up, he is captivated by her and he does admit that maybe its her beauty but in some twisted way this woman reminds him so much of Dana....In letters to Dana the references to Dana parents kind of signifies that they were personally close... last drop falls is also an awesome song guys

Linked songs theories | Reviewer: Magenta | 11/5/11

I've just been doing a little looking ino the whole caleb trilogy of S.A songs, and heard a few speculations that this also links to it, or that this is part of a Dana set. Personally I think it's more likely to be linked to letter to Dana than the Caleb ones. Not only because of the line 'you can't be acting like my Dana' but because it doesn't fit wih the personality of Caleb that S.A paints. Although the lyrics suggest he's stalking her a bit, and Caleb stalked his girl, right from the begginng his interest seemed more sinister, and he seems a lot more up front. He mentions rejection suggesting that he has approached her.
In this song the guy seems a lot sweeter and of course shier. His following her home was to make sure she was okay, as opposed to findin out where she lived or something.
I was also thinking in connection to letters to Dana, that his writing her letters and promises to not contact her apart from important things (her parents deaths) would guest the same kind of shy personality, wanting to talk to her but not daring to without good reason.
Also the whole sweeter softer sounds of the songs letters to Dana and Shy sound like they could represent that personality, whereas all the caleb ones are heavier an darker music, a representation of his personality.
Just my theories of course.

Nothing can compare to hopeless desire | Reviewer: Dante | 2/1/11

I think this could easily be a follow up to "Letter to Dana", because he says that she can't be acting like Dana. I think "You can't acting like my Dana" was not reffering to what Dana did with those magazines, but rather, she was inadvertantly copying Dana's mannerisms.

so beautifull | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/6/10

This song...
I can't imagine how someone can put so much emotion in a song. This song kind of touches me on a personal level, not the stalking aspect tought. With less "creepy" lyrics, this would be a great love song. I'm not a fan of this kind of music but this song is just so beautifull.

Shy | Reviewer: dddddavid | 8/2/09

SERIOUSLY people, it's a beautiful song, but it's nothing like Tallulah or Letter to Dana

This song is about a stalker, who thinks he is pathetic and all he wants in the world is for the girl he loves to talk to her

One must feel | Reviewer: Stig | 3/30/09

Now, the thing about this song is that it isnt rubbish bullshit and imagination it has a ceirtan emotional charm over you can clearly feel it.

I used to write songs... they all turned up bad until the day i started to write about my inner thoughts and emotions... it really helped the song writing. From a scale from 1-10 this song would be a 10

Answer | Reviewer: GoinGoin | 12/21/08

I think that you've misunderstood the lyrics. In the song "Letter To Dana", the narrator speak about a girl he loved hardly, but who has done bad things (filfy magazines...)
In the song "Shy", it's the narrator who's shy, and he's afraid to lose this girl as he lost Dana...
That's I've understood...

Really significant song, imo... Really like it :)

? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/22/08

Well, i don't understand too much the conection of this song with "letter to dana", because this song says "You can't be acting like my Dana", and in the other song I understand that "dana" is a bad person, so...
And if the girl that he mentionated in "shy" is like dana, a bad person, how can he be in love with her?...I guess it's true that he just writted "dana" to make the people remember the other song. what do you think?

My first Song | Reviewer: Rainer | 10/22/08

This is the first song I heard from Sonata. I have to thank my sister for the various songs she downloaded on to the computer, but if she hadn't I wouldn't have known of this beautiful song, Sonata Arctica, or powermetal at all.
Sure, the song's stalkerish, but I can't help but love it, since I've felt that way before.

Sonata Arctica kicks ass | Reviewer: Adam | 8/19/08

I really think this song can be very personnal and I think it is really a great hit from Sonata. I love the emotions captured in it and I think most people have felt these emotions at one point in their lives. The reference to Dana is awesome. I really want to see Sonata put out more songs like this and they somewhat accomplised that with the song Caleb from the album Unia. Anyways all I got to say is keep on puuting those songs out there and I'll keep on listening to them.

Amazing, But... | Reviewer: Bishie | 8/7/08

I love this song, it's pretty cool to see Sonata Arctica reference another song. It gives the music a sort of life of it's own, in it's own universe. But seriously, though, am I the only one who notices the song is about a man and the lady he stalks? Sure, it's not malicious, it's romantic in a creepy way. But still...

beautiful | Reviewer: ReplicaOfMe | 8/5/08

This song is really beautiful...sonata arctica knows how to capture emotions perfectly...you can feel what Tony feels through the song...and yeah i agree Tallulah and all the other songs you've mentioned really are beautiful, but you forgot to mention Misery...it's also one of the most wonderful songs i've heard from them ;)

Answer | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/14/08

Hi, I've noticed a question about the character Dana here and I'd like to answer. Dana is like Tallulah, Mary-Lou and Selene; completely fictional. Tony (leadsinger from Sonata, if some didn't know) once stated in an interview that he put Dana in Shy to see if people would notice that Dana is there again like in Letter To Dana.
Hope that makes it clear :) If it did, then please rely ^_^

This is song is gorgeous btw.
