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 my 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 Bonnicut 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 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
