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 
You were fifth-grade, I was sixth when we came to be
Walkin' home ev'ry 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 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 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 
(My eyes adored you though I never laid a hand on you)
Whoa baby, 
(My eyes adored you like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored you)
Oh the feeling, sad regrets I know I won't ever forget you 
My childhood friend
(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
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
