Lyrics

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
Headed for city lights
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame
Worked my fingers to the bone
Made myself a name
Funny how 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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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 and yet so far (So close, so close)
So close, so close, and yet so far
