Boys Like You

Cut back, rewind, gotta play the replay in my mind It's a little fuzzy but I think I can make it out Look it's me standing there with my diary Hiding the evidence that I wrote down in period three Could this be the moment that I have been dreaming about? But then she's there too in pink and blue I guess all the starts align for you And I'll take all my heart break and swallow it down They can never find out All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you "I'll never love again" That's what I said When I ran home and told my Mum in 1997 I still remember the look on her face She said "Boys like that should be in 2nd place I know it hurts right now one day you'll realize There's no need to hide yourself from the world" I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (no, no, no) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (no, no, no) There's no need to hide Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (no, no, no) There's no need to hide Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you There's no need to hide All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (there's no need to hide) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (there's no need to hide) Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (there's no need to hide) Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you (there's no need to hide) All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (boy, boy, boy) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (boy, boy, boy) Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (boy, boy, boy) Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you (boy, boy, boy, boy...)
