The moment I saw her smile I knew she was just my style My only regret is we've never met For I dream of her all the while But she doesn't know I exist No matter how much I persist So it's clear to see there's no hope for me Though I live at fifty-one thirty-five Kensington Avenue And she lives at fifty-one thirty-three How can I ignore the girl next door? I love her more than I can say Doesn't try to please me, doesn't even tease me And she never sees me glance her way And though I'm heart sore, the girl next door Affection for me won't display I just adore her so I can't ignore her The girl next door
