The Boy Next Door

The Boy Next Door - Judy Garland/Joan Caulfield/Frank Sinatra

Written by：Hugh Martin/Ralph Blane

The moment I saw him smile

I knew he was just my style

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 51 31 Kensington avenue

And he lives at 51 33

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
