From A Distance Lyrics

From A Distance lyrics

Just another bar, loud guitars

Smoke, candles burning low

And the same old boys, their backs to the bar

Staring across a crowded floor



Then I hear a familiar sound

Your voice laughing out loud



From a distance I can see you

Dancing slowly with somebody new

But I can't hold you like I want to

But I can love you from a distance



So I take a chair in a corner somewhere

You can't see me but I can look at you

And I remember those times when I looked in your eyes

The way that he now looks at you



Deep down I know it's over

But it hurts me when he's so much closer



From a distance I can see you

Dancing slowly with somebody new

But I can't hold you like I want to

But I can love you from a distance



And if I can't hold you near me

I'll just hold on to your memory



From a distance I can see you

Dancing slowly with somebody new

But I can't hold you like I want to

But I can love you from a distance

I'll always love you from a distance
