I heard them say love
Was a wonderful things
Something you can't
Hide on a shelf
But tome they no longer
Have to explain
Because I know for myself
He awakens each morn
With a smile on his face
When a boy is in love
And the world to him
Is a beautiful place
When a boy is in love
He's up and he's gone
There's no breakfast for him
Cause he lives on the love
Of his sweet little gem
The day's not through
Though it's not very long
Before he must talk
To his girl on the phone
That's how it is
When a boy falls in love
His girl's voice on the phone
Brings him wondrous delight
When a boy falls in love
If there's been any darkness
It all fades from sight
When a boy is in love
He can hardly wait
Til the moment they meet
For he knows when he sees her
His day will be complete
When they're finally alone
And he kisses her lips
The world sings a love song
And his heart turns a flip
That's how it is
When a boy falls in love
At the end of the day
The time comes, they must part
The strings of regret
Tear away at his heart
And late in the night
As he sleeps on his bed
Visions of her sweet charms
How they dance through his head
And before you know
He's buying a ring
To capture forever
That sweet darling thing
That's how it is
When a boy falls in love
Oh, that's how it is
When a boy falls in love
Woah, oh, that's how it is
When a boy falls in love
Oh, that's how it is
When a fella falls in love
