Ben E. King - Young Boy Blues Lyrics

Every time I kiss somebody new I
Make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
I wanna cry when I hear your name
If I cry I feel ashamed so
I let my pride be my guide
I keep those tears inside and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh I can't lose these young boy blues
Oh-oh don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm so lost and lonely
Since I lost you
Every time I kiss somebody new I
Oh make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
Oh-oh now don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm so lost and lonely
Since I lost you
Every time I kiss somebody new
Oh make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh
I can't lose these young boy blues
Oh-oh each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
Yeah aw ooh each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh can't lose these young boy blues
My now oh-oh-oh

Every time I kiss somebody new I
Make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
I wanna cry when I hear your name
If I cry I feel ashamed so
I let my pride be my guide
I keep those tears inside and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh I can't lose these young boy blues
Oh-oh don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm so lost and lonely
Since I lost you
Every time I kiss somebody new I
Oh make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
Oh-oh now don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm so lost and lonely
Since I lost you
Every time I kiss somebody new
Oh make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos
My heart knows we're still apart and
Each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh
I can't lose these young boy blues
Oh-oh each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh since I got these young boy blues
Yeah aw ooh each night is like a thousand years
Oh-oh can't lose these young boy blues
My now oh-oh-oh
