He was a boy, she was a girl
Can I make it any more obvious
He was a punk, she did ballet
What more can I say
He wanted her, she’d never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a sk8ter boy
She said, see ya later boy
He wasn’t good enough for her
She had a pretty face
But her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth

5 years from now she sits at home
Feeding the baby, she’s all alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees
Sk8ter boy rockin’ up MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know
And they’ve all got tickets to see his show
She tags along, stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down

He was a sk8ter boy
She said, see ya later boy
He wasn’t good enough for her
Now he’s a superstar
Slamin’ on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he’s worth?

Sorry girl, but you missed out
Well tough luck that boy’s mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn’t see
See the man that boy could be
There is more that meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside

He’s just a boy and I’m just a girl
Can I make it any more obvious
We are in love, haven’t you heard
How we rock each other’s world

I’m with the sk8ter boy
I said see ya later boy
I’ll be back stage after the show
I’ll be at the studio
Singing the song we wrote
About a girl you used to know
