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,
Playing make-believe you're married to me:
You were fifth grade, I was sixth when we came to be
Walking home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay,
Till we grew into the me and 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 seem to find that, no matter how the years unwind, Still I reminisce about the gir 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, Oh Baby
Though I'm feeling sad regrets I know I won't ever forget You, my childhood friend.

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.
