Lyrics:
Unusual Boy Copyright Bernie Dalton, essence, Roger Rocha 2018
Always a boy loves me
When I start to open
Always a boy leaves me
When it’s not enough
Never the right boy
Can understand me
Never the right boy
To own my heart
Only an unusual boy
Could love and understand me
If only an unusual boy
Could love me tonight
I need an unusual boy
To continue to believe in me
I need this unusual boy
To convince me to believe too
Such an unusual boy
Not look I need attention
Such an unusual boy
We’re cut from the same cloth
Only an unusual boy
Could love and understand me
If only an unusual boy
Could hold me tonight
Longing to tell him
I have feelings for him
Longing to say
I can’t hold back anymore
Afraid that I’ll that I’ll lose him
But equally afraid
Afraid that he’ll say
I just don’t see you that way
Only an unusual boy
Could love and understand me
And only an unusual boy
Could love and understand me
And I know an unusual boy
And I think that he can handle me
And I know an unusual boy
Cause I am the unusual girl
I’m moving to the real me
And I am the unusual girl
Who feels, I feel so much more
If only an unusual boy
Would choose to embrace me
I know that my unusual boy
He could be Mr. Right.
