Ben E. King › Lyrics › Young Boy Blues

Every time I kiss somebody new, I, uh
Make believe I'm kissing you but, uh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cause, uh
My heart know we're still apart and, uh

Each night is like a thousand years, oh, oh
I can't lose these young boy blues

I wanna cry when I hear your name but
If I cry, I feel ashamed so
I let my pride be my guide and then
I keep those tears inside so

Each night is like a thousand years, oh, oh
Since I lost these young boy blues, hmm

Don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm so lonesome and lonely
Since I lost you

Every time I kiss somebody new, I, uh
Make believe I'm kissing you but, uh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cause, uh
My heart know we're still apart and

Each night is like a thousand years, oh, oh
I can't lose these young boy blues, hmm
Each night is like a thousand years, oh, oh
I can't lose these young boy blues, hmm
Each night is like a thousand years
