My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you.
My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me,
You couldn't see how I adored you.
So close, so close and yet so for.
Carried your books from school
Playin' make believe you're married to me,
You were fifth-grade, I was sixth when we come to be.
Walkin' home every day over Bonnicut Bridge and Bay
Til we grew into me na you who went our separate ways.
My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me,
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
Headed for city lights, climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame,
I worked my fingers to the bone Made myself a name.
Funny I seemed to find that no matter how the years unwind;
Still I reminisce 'bout the girl I miss and the love I left behind
My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me,
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
All my life I will remember how warm and tender we were way back then,
(My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you.)
Whoa Bay,
(My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me, You couldn't see how I adored you.)
Oh the feeling, sad regrets I know I won't ever forget you,
My childhood friend.
(So close, so close and yet so far .)
My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you.
My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me,
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so for.
My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you.
My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me,
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far.
