The day that I knew you were on this planet
Nothing happened the way that I planned it
My words were meaningless and my mouth hung open
I couldn't express that I'd discovered bliss
Now I'll never the joy
In another's kiss
And I'll never know
Why I had to miss
So much of life
All for the love of a boy
Chorus: Heartaches come and heartaches go
But they make the time fly much too slow
And I try so hard to just be coy
And not let on I've let life slip by
All for the love of a boy
No matter who is standing in front of me
Your's is the only face my eyes will see
Your touch is the only one I want to feel
There can't be any hope for tomorrow
When my heart's joy
Is obscured by sorrow
And I'll never know
The love I'd borrow
Because I've lost all that
All for the love of a boy
Chorus
I'll miss you forver and never let go
Of the thought that you'll never truely know
How you were able to turn my whole life upside down
How your fingers still brush my face
And I revel in the joy
Of your embrace
How I'll never forget
Or leave this place
Of torment I now call home
All for the love of a boy
Chorus
Your voice lingers constantly in my ear
Whispering the words that I long to hear
And I cry when I realize you're never really there
My hand gropes for yours in the dark
I miss the joy
Of a simple walk in the park
Because how can I even
Enjoy a simple lark
When I've given up on all of my life
All for the love of a boy
Chorus
