People always told me that it hurts to be in love
There's nothing we can do but pray to God above
I've heard a lot of stories that all end sad
But nothing that I've heard sounds quite this bad
It's hard enough when love is unrequited
But what do you do when her boyfriend's dead
She was the first girl who ever made me fall
I just took too long to ask her
To the freaking Yule Ball
Hair like silk and eyes aglow
And she looked so pretty in her schoolgirl robes
And skin like porcelain
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Oh, she's a dead boy's girlfriend
I gulped down my Gillyweed and jumped into the lake
Not knowing who the masters of the tournament would take
I dodged the merpeople and the Grindylow
And saw three pretty girls there, floating in a row
But it was freaking Ron Weasley who was waiting for me
She was the prize for Cedric Diggory
She was the first girl who ever made me fall
I just took too long to ask her
To the freaking Yule Ball
Hair like silk and eyes aglow
And she looked so pretty in her schoolgirl robes
And skin like porcelain
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Oh, she's a dead boy's girlfriend
On that fateful night, Cedric and I
We finished that maze at the very same time
We grabbed that cup together to share the glory
I thought maybe he could share something else with me
But a minute later, he was dead
And you could never wanna be with me instead
You could never wanna be with me instead
Never wanna be with me instead
You were the first girl who ever made me fall
I just took too long to ask you
To the freaking Yule Ball
Hair like silk and eyes aglow
And you looked so pretty in your schoolgirl robes
And skin like porcelain
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Oh, she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Now it seems that all I make you do is cry
I can never snog you and it's no secret why
He's still there between us even though he's gone
Cheating on a dead guy is so very wrong
You'll probably have a very nice life
But you'll probably have to be a boring muggle's wife
You were the first girl who ever made me fall
I just took too long to ask you
To the freaking Yule Ball
Hair like silk and eyes aglow
And you looked so pretty in your schoolgirl robes
And skin like porcelain
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Oh, she's a dead boy's girlfriend
Yeah, she's a dead boy's girlfriend
