Your family lived next
door mine
|
|
We walked to school
together
|
|
We were best friends
through rain or shine
|
|
Sure to remain
forever
|
|
|
|
But as time flew my
feelings grew
|
|
With ever more emotion
|
|
Until the love I felt
for you
|
|
Was deeper than the
ocean
|
|
|
|
I knew you liked me
as a friend
|
|
I wished it was
more
|
|
Thought all I’d ever
be to you
|
|
Is just the girl next
door
|
|
|
|
I hurt inside… and
yes… I cried
|
|
When other girls you
dated
|
|
I listened as you
burst with pride
|
|
Pretending I related
|
|
|
|
I knew you liked me
as a friend
|
|
I wished it was
more
|
|
Thought all I’d ever
be to you
|
|
Is just the girl next
door
|
|
|
|
Instrumental |
|
|
|
You took off with some
beauty queen… sure she was like no other
|
|
But when you found her
not so sweet you moved back with your mother
|
|
Your sorry tale you
told to me in tears shed on my shoulder
|
|
I prayed a wiser man
you’d be now that you're getting older
|
|
|
|
I knew you liked me
as a friend
|
|
I wished it was
more
|
|
Thought all I’d ever
be to you
|
|
Is just the girl next
door
|
|
|
|
But as time flew your
feelings grew
|
|
With ever more emotion
|
|
Till you confessed
your love for me
|
|
Is deeper than the
ocean
|
|
|
|
I knew you liked
me as a friend
|
|
But now your heart
feels more
|
|
Now I’m your true love
to life’s end
|
|
Not just the girl next
door
|
|
Yes I’m your true love
to life’s end
|
|
Not just the girl next
door
|
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
