the boy

The Shangri-las

His eyes are the eyes of a boy growing old
Deep down inside there s a story untold
He s sad, then he laughs a while
He looks at me and then he smiles
I m in love, I m in love with that boy

Till I met him, I never thought
That love could feel this way
My nights were filled with lonely dreams
That grew worse with each passing day
I used to walk the streets at night
With, really, no place to go
But loneliness is a part of my past
A million tears ago

When I stand by his side
My heart s full of pride
I look up at his face
And I know, among giants
He ll hold his place

So proud, so bold, so strong and I belong
Do you think that people are being fair
Cause they fear we re too young to care?
But I don t care what people say
My love will grow stronger with each passing day

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I m in lo-ah-ove
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I m in lo-ah-ove
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I m in
