My timid heart…!

It’s not that I don’t want to say

What’s in mind or what’s my art

But I always end up listening to you

As mine you know – is a timid heart 

It’s not that I don’t want to show

What talents I have, what I’m good at

The spotlight on me is too much to take

Coz mine you know – is a timid heart

I would like the applause too

Centre stage for my well-played part

But in all probability, I’ll shy away

For mine you know, is a timid heart

I’ve lost chances – they’ve cost me dear

Too late to probably go back to the start

Yes, I agree I could’ve gained more

Hadn’t mine been a timid heart…!
