Boy Next Door

Jamelia

Mmm
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, hey, eh, hey

Never ever in a million years
Was this what, I was thinking of
Crazy, somehow it never crossed my mind
My first friend becoming my first love

Used to be the one who play with my toys and (used to be)
Never woulda thought of you as a boyfriend
If you would asked who I was looking for (looking for)
Woulda said someone (someone) like the boy next door
Growing up, if you (growing up) had ever told me 
You'd be the one I'd be wanting to hold me
I woulda laughed and said you were crazy 
Never be with the boy next door
(Never be with the boy next door)

So hold you, showed you, everything in my life
When we go cruising in your ride
So why, was I taken by surprise
Found love growing in my own backyard

Playing hide and seek
In the summer heat
Didn't wanna go inside
Wanna hang out until sunrise (sunrise) [sunrise]
Whenever I was down, never had a doubt 
That you'd be in my life
Whenever anyone saw me, they saw you too, ooh, ooh, yeah

Used to be the one who play with my toys and
Never woulda thought of you as a boyfriend
If you would asked who I was looking for
Woulda said someone like the boy next door (mmm)
Growing up, if you had ever told me (mmm)
You'd be the one I'd be wanting to hold me
I woulda laughed and said you were crazy 
Never be with the boy next door (never, never, never)

Used to be the one who play with my toys and
Never woulda thought of you as a boyfriend (you and me)
If you would asked who I was looking for (looking for)
Woulda said someone like the boy next door (boy next door)
Growing up, if you (growing up) had ever told me 
You'd be the one I'd be wanting to hold me (holding me)
I woulda laughed and said you were crazy (crazy)
Never be (never be) with the boy next door (boy next door)

Playing hide and seek
In the summer heat
Didn't wanna go inside
I wanna hang out until sunrise (sunrise) [sunrise]
Whenever I was down, never had a doubt 
That you'd be in my life (my life)
Whenever anyone saw me, they saw you too, whoa

Used to be the one who play with my toys and
(Never ever thought that it would be)
Never woulda thought of you as a boyfriend
If you would asked who I was looking for
(You are my friend)
Woulda said someone like the boy next door 
(The boy next door)
Growing up, if you had ever told me
(Told you, showed you, all I had)
You'd be the one I'd be wanting to hold me
I woulda laughed and said you were crazy 
(Love was growing with)
Never be with the boy next door
(Oh, no, no, no)

Used to be the one who play with my toys and
(Never ever thought that it would be)
Never woulda thought of you as a boyfriend
If you would asked who I was looking for

Woulda said someone like the boy next door 
(You are my friend)
Growing up, if you had ever told me
You'd be the one I'd be wanting to hold me (wanting me)
I woulda laughed and said you were crazy 
Never be with the boy next door (boy next door)
