One-Sided Love Story

One beautiful and stunning summer day,
I found a handsome boy along the bay.
I fell in love with the boy by the sea.
Why? Oh, why will he never love me?

Summer ended and for years it seemed.
I thought I just must have dreamed
about the boy I fell in love with by the sea.
Why? Oh, why will he never love me?

I feel like I have finally awoken,
but I guess that his actions have spoken.
Why did I fall in love with the boy by the sea?
Why? Oh, why will he never love me?

It seems it might have just been a fling.
There might never be a shiny silver ring.
I hate that I fell in love with the boy by the sea.
Why? Oh, why will he never love me?

I sit and wait for him to come down.
How long will it be till he comes around?
I shouldn’t have fallen in love with the boy by the sea.
Why? Oh, why has he never loved me?

He’s gone forever; this is my goodbye.
This hurts so bad, I think I might die.
I don’t know why I fell in love with the boy by the sea.
Why? Oh, why would he have ever loved me?
