Lyrics

House Next Door

I watched from my window
The day that you moved in
I was barely six years old
And you were turning ten
And if somebody had a feather
They could've knocked me to the floor
I didn't know what I was feeling
Just that I wanted to feel it more

Hi, I'm the boy from the house next door
I'm not old enough but I could be yours
If you'd stop growing up
Slow up - I'll get there
Hold up - I'm right here
In the house next door

On my first day of high shcool
You were starting senior year
When I asked you to the prom
I guess your answer wasn't clear
'Cause who's this guy pulling up to your house
In his sports car and his vest?
When you just got all dressed up for me
Why's he pinning a flower on your dress?

'cause I'm just boy in the house next door
I'm not old enough but I could be yours
If you'd stop growing up
Slow up - I'll get there
Hold up - I'm right here
In the house next door

And now runnin' into you
Years after you left home for school
And then I went away too
I still feel the way I felt
So hopefully time moved on and time made
Less of a big deal 'bout itself

Hi, I'm the boy in the house next door
I wasn't old enough but I could've been yours
Slow up - And I got there
Hold up - I'll always be there
Like the house next door
