That Boy

Our love was strong;

So where did it go wrong?



Another boy got in our way;

A wonderful life ahead of us did lay.



This boy, this thing of such stupidity;

Captured my heart from me.



It takes time for love to heal;

Heartbroken -- is exactly how I feel.



You, is what I miss;

Especially your tender kiss.



That boy, crushed me;

Now I wish he could set me free.



If a Guardian Angel had been watching me;

That boy would have left my heart with thee.



This Angel must not care;

Or our love she would have known to spare.



I love you, and I will always be, to you, forever true;

So, that boy will never steal me from you.



Someone else you are with;

And, I really do not know, without you, how I can live.



That boy, crushed me;

Now, I wish he could set me free.
