C7Fmaj7F6Fmaj7F6Gm7 The moment I saw him smile C7Fmaj7F6Fmaj7F6Gm7 I knew he was just my style C7FF7 My only regret is we've never met Though 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
