under my skin (album version)

Under My Skin -- Rachael Yamagata

I hesitate to say I was bait for you
Could that be something that you all would do?
Id be lying if I did now say I wasnt 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 out from under my skin?
Cause I cant begin this yet
And I dont know what my intentions are
Theyre speaking in a different tongue
And deep inside, Im not as tough as I seem
But I wont let you know
Until its right, Im gonna stay my distance
And you should go

Im in the dance, and its a chance
But stay and watch awhile
Ill be singing a tune just for you with a smile
And maybe, if Im lucky
Youll tip your hat to me, and youll discover
That you like her

Would you please get out from under my skin?
For I cant begin this yet
And I dont know what my intentions are
Theyre speaking in a different tongue
And , deep inside, Im not as tough as I seem
But I wont let you know
Until its right, Im gonna stay my distance
And you should go

Crazy as it all plays out
I think Im lonelier than Ive ever been before
Cause I was so close
To going through that door
But I dont want to be to blame for them
I dont want to be to blame

Oh, would you please get out from under my skin?
For I cant begin this yet
And I dont know what my intentions are
Theyre speaking in a different tongue
And, deep deep inside, Im not as tough as I seem
But I wont let you know
Until its right, Im gonna stay my distance,
and you should go
Oh, would you please get out
Im not as strong as I seem, but I wont let you know
