My Eyes Adored You
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.

Carried your books from school

Playin' "make-believe you're married to me"
I was fifth-grade, you were sixth when we came to be.

Walkin' home every day over Bonicut bridge and bay
Till we grew into the me and you 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 the city lights climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame
We worked our fingers to the bone made ourselves 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.

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.
