The moment I saw him smile
I knew he was just my style
My only regret is we've never met
For I dream of him all the while
But he doesn't know I exist
No matter how I may persist
So it's clear to see there's no hope for me
Though I live at fifty-one-thirty-five Kensington Avenue
And he lives at fifty-one-thirty-three
How can I ignore the boy next door
I love him more than I can say
Doesn't try to please me
Doesn't even tease me
And he never sees me glance his way
And though I'm heart-sore, the boy next door
Affection for me won't display
I just adore him
So I can't ignore him
The boy next door
I just adore him
So I can't ignore him
The boy next door
You made me love you
I didn't wanna do it, I didn't wanna do it.
You made me love you,
And all the time you knew it; I guess you always knew it
You made me happy sometimes, you made me glad
But there were times, dear, you made me feel so bad
You made me sad 'cause
I didn't wanna tell you, I didn't wanna tell you
I think you are grand that's true
Yes I do, 'deed I do, you know I do.
I can't tell you what I'm feeling the very mention of your name
Sends my heart reeling
You know you made me love you
My heart beats like a hammer
And I stutter and I stammer
Everytime I see you at the picture show
I'm just another fan of yours
And I thought I'd write and tell you so
You made me sad 'cause
I didn't wanna tell you, I didn't wanna tell you
I want some love, that's true
Yes I do, 'deed I do, you know I do.
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie, gimmie what I cry for
You know you've got the brand of kisses that I'd die for
I can't ignore you
I just adore you
You know you made me love you
