He's in Love with the Boy Lyrics

Billy bursts out of those old barn doors

Throwing his work gloves on the ground

Down by the house somebody's laying on their horn

He's waited all day for that sound

A brand new mustang is pulling up slow

Beside the front porch in the drive

His best friend Dylan waves from the window

And Billy can't hide a smile

His daddy says, ain't they kinda close

Billy keeps their secret, hopes that no one knows that

They dream of places where nobody will care

He would follow Dylan anywhere

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with a boy

And even if they have to run away

He's gonna be with that boy one day

Billy and Dylan in the bowling alley

In the very last lane

Watching those other couples snuggled up close and

Wishing they could do the same

Then Dylan pulls out his new spare car key

Puts it into Billy's hand

In a couple more years, we're gonna drive right outta here and

We don't ever have to look back

His daddy says, ain't they kinda close

Billy keeps their secret, hopes that no one knows that

They dream of places where nobody will care

He would follow Dylan anywhere

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with a boy

And even if they have to run away

He's gonna be with that boy one day

Daddy's waiting up till half past two

When the mustang pulls up the drive

Two shadows kissing in the windshield, so he

Gets his coat to go outside

Momma stops him with a hand on his shoulder, says

Don't you remember when, when

When it was just us against the world, babe

Those days we just wanted somebody

To believe in us again

My daddy said you wasn't worth a lick

That when it came to brains you got the short end of the stick

Well, he was wrong, and Tommy, you are too

Billy look as Dylan like I still look at you

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with the boy

He's in love with a boy

What's meant to be will always find a way

He's gonna be with that boy one day
