People always told me that it hurts to be in love,
And 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 a glow,
And she looks so pretty in her school girl robes,
And skin like porcelain,
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend.
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 mer-people 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 a glow,
And she looks so pretty in her school girl robes,
And skin like porcelain,
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend.
She's a dead boy's girlfriend. 

On that fateful night Cedric and I
Finished that maze at the very same time.
We grabbed the cup together to share the glory,
I thought maybe he could share something else with me.
But a minute later, he was dead,
Now you could never want to be with me instead.
Never want to be with me instead.

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 looks so pretty in her school girl robes
And skin like porcelain
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend
She's a dead boy's girlfriend.

Now it seems 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
I'm sure that you will have a very nice life
But you'll probably have to be some boring Muggle's wife

She was the first girl
Who ever made me fall,
I just took to long to ask her to the freaking Yule Ball.
Hair like silk and eyes a glow,
And she looks so pretty in her school girl robes,
And skin like porcelain,
But she's a dead boy's girlfriend.
Yeah she's a dead boy's girlfriend.
