My Eyes Adored You |
My eyes adored ya |
Though I never laid a hand on you |
My eyes adored ya |
Like a million miles away from me |
You couldn’t see how I adored ya |
So close, so close and yet so far |
Carried your books from school |
Playin' «make-believe you’re married to me» |
You were fifth-grade, I was sixth |
When we came to be |
Walkin' home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay |
Till we grew into the me and you |
Went our separate ways |
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 ya) |
All my life I will remember |
(Though I never laid a hand on you) |
How warm and tender we were way back then, whoa, whoa, baby |
(Like a million miles away from me |
You couldn’t see how I adored ya) |
Oh, the feeling, sad regrets |
(So close, so close and yet so far) |
I know I won’t ever forget ya, my childhood friend |
(My eyes adored ya) |
(Though I never laid a hand on you) |
(My eyes adored ya) |
(Like a million miles away from me |
You couldn’t see how I adored ya) |
(Fade) |
So close, so close and yet so far |
