Lyrics
A BOY LIKE YOU
(V1) You asked me to the high school dance,
so, I’m giving you one more chance.
I am hoping for some romance.
Oh!
(V2) 'Cause, boy, ooh, you drive me so wild!
I feel like a little child
when you hold me and say my name.
Boy, you drive me insane!
(CH) I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you.
I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you,
like you,
like you,
like you!
(V3) Then, later that night I was hurt
when I saw you talking to her,
take her hand and ask her to dance.
Oh!
(V4) Then, you act as if everything’s fine
and you tell me that you’re all mine.
I am hoping for the truth this time,
‘cause boy you’re so fine!
(CH) I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you.
I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you,
(BR) Come on and please, please tell me why!
Why do you always make me cry!
I’m just a girl!
I’m just a girl! ____
(CH) I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you.
I’m just a girl that’s dealing with the feelings
for a boy like you,
like you,
like you,
like you!
(CH Tag) A boy like you,
like you,
like you,
a charmed boy like you!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Ooh, yeah, yeah! A charmed boy like you!
