|
Just another bar
|
With loud guitars
|
Smoke and candles burning low
|
And the same ol' 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 onto 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
|
