-Words by Howie Greenfield and Music by Neil Sedaka

(Ah, ah, ah, ah)

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

How I'd like to look into that little book

The one that has the lock and key

And know the boy that you care for

The boy who's in your diary

When it's late at night what is the name you write?

Oh, what I'd give if I could see

Am I the boy that you care for?

The boy who's in your diary

Do you recall and make note of all

The little things I say and do?

The name you underline, I'm hoping that it's mine

Darling, I'm so in love with you-oo

Please don't leave me blue, make all my dreams come true

You know how much you mean to me

Say I'm the boy that you care for

The boy who's in yourdi-a-ry

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

(Whoa-oh-oh-whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
