A New Boy Like Me/Unexpected

I’m sitting at home

i’m alone in the dark

listening to hard rain falling

and drinking dark rum

and thinking about

how met at high school

it was the summer of 82

love struck teenage fools

you were just fourteen

a popular girl

and the prettiest I’ve ever seen

but what would it matter

there’s no way you’d notice

a new boy like me

but one day it happened

a kiss on the bus

it came unexpected

it became about us

we sat there together

all the way to your stop

you got off on Collick Street

but you never looked back

at a new boy like me

you left my heart pounding

and feeling in love

but what were you feeling ?

i hoped it was for

an unlikely romance

with a new boy like me

love sometimes happens

you never know how

it comes unexpected

love sometimes happens

you never know why

it comes unexpected

love sometimes happens

you tell yourself once

it comes unexpected

love love love

mmmmmm

love love love

yeah yeah

somehow you noticed

a new boy like me

a new boy like me

like me
