¢¸ My Eyes Adored You - The Four Seasons ¢º
* My eyes adored ya though I never laid a hand on you My eyes adored ya Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see how I adored ya 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 every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay Till we grew into the me and you, went our separate ways
[chorus]
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 ya, all my life I will remember (Though I never laid a hand on you) How warm and tender we were way back then, whoa, whoa, baby (Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see how I adored ya) Oh, the feeling, sad regrets (So close, so close and yet so far) I know I won't ever forget ya, my childhood friend (My eyes adored ya) (Though I never laid a hand on you) (My eyes adored ya) (Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see how I adored ya)
So close, so close and yet so far.
