In the lonely night I wake up to find
   Someone else's boy always on my mind
   But he doesn't know how much I really love him so
  
   Though it isn't right when I dream like this
   I long to hold him tight and to taste his kiss
   Then I wake to find he's someone else's boy, not mine
  
   Whenever I see them together it breaks my poor heart in two
   I know that I should forget him
   'Cause he's her guy, but what can I do
  
   How I hope and pray to the lord above
   To send me down a boy, one that I could love
   Who'll be mine alone and not someone else's boy
