The Boy Next Door
Anthony Lázaro
Juicy headlines are gonna pop up in the news
Let your hair down, and start taking off your shoes
Heat is rising
Already feel under his spell
Soon the boy next door
Will lay his fingers on your bell
When it's late into night
And the dancing is slow
Let your waist do the talking
And then gently let go
From his look you can tell
Tonight you know these hands are gonna heal you
He's the circular obsession (that's) gonna keep you up at night
The sweet overnight potion that will make your lips ignite
A speed up in your chest
The shaking in your bones
The coming of the spring after a winter on your own
When it's late into night
And the dancing is slow
Let your waist do the talking
And then gently let go
From his look you can tell
Tonight you know these hands are gonna heal you
The boy next door is pacing up the floor
Sooner or later will be drifting to your shore
The dark's the perfect moment to explore
When it's late into night
And the dancing is slow
Let your waist do the talking
And then gently let go
And from his look you can tell
Tonight you know these hands are gonna heal you
No matter what you say
Or struggle to deny
You know the boy next door
Is carved into your mind
And when the Sun goes down
You know the curtain falls upon that phony pride
Tonight
He's gonna trace the silk of your skin
He's gonna play and then let you win
He's gonna dry your tears if you weep
He's gonna fade away while you sleep
