Curling deep inside each day
  waiting for the courage that never came
  so on your way and without a clue
  that these adoring eyes they long for you, yea-yeah
  
  i tried to get real close to you
  hoping that you would see through my disguise
  and somehow you´d know that i...
  
  i adored ya
  though i never laid my hands on you
  my eyes adored ya (my eyes adore you)
  like you couldn´t see a million miles away'
  how i adored ya
  so close (so close)
  so close and yet so far
  
  you looked at me and saw a friend
  you told me things and i´d have to pretend
  that you didn´t mean the world to me
  and all the while behind the scenes
  i cried with you and lived your dream, yes i did
  the reality:
  -the hope still holds, the dreams run wild in the nighttime too-
  so tell me tell me baby
  was i a fool?
  do your eyes adore me too?
  
  i adored ya
  though i never laid my hands on you
  my eyes adored ya (my eyes adore you)
  like you couldn´t see a million miles away'
  how i adored ya
  so close (so close)
  so close and yet so far
