Text: Melanie Safka. Lovin' the Boy Next Door.

Guess who's coming to my house
Guess who's ringing my bell
Guess who's gonna come over
Coming to wish me well
I don't have to be sad and
I don't have to cry anymore, -ore

Life is gonna be beautiful
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Oh life is gonna get easy now
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Loving the boy, loving the boy
Loving the boy next door
Loving the boy, loving the boy
Loving the boy next door

I don't have to go wandering
I don't have to hang out
I don't have to get rained on
Cause love is in my backyard
I just look out my window
Cause I know that he's looking for more, -ore

Life is gonna be beautiful
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Oh life is gonna get easy now
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Loving the boy, loving the boy
Loving the boy next door
Loving the boy, loving the boy
Loving the boy next door

Here we go, I said

The grass always looks greener
On the other side
And things have never been sweeter
Since I opened my eyes
The same things look different
And less has been looking like more, -ore

Life is gonna be beautiful
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Oh life is gonna get easy now
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Oh I said, life is gonna be beautiful
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
I said life is gonna be so much more simple now
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Life is gonna be so much more beautiful
Cause I'm loving the boy next door
Oh, life is gonna get easy now...
