Amanda was a small town blonde haired beauty |
| [00:16.55] |
She had Heaven in her eyes and could light up a room |
| [00:21.16] |
When she walked into view |
| [00:24.37] |
She was the prettiest girl in my school |
| [00:30.80] |
And I knew she'd never give me the time of day |
| [00:35.07] |
No girls like her ever looked twice my way |
| [00:39.93] |
She was out of my league |
| [00:43.19] |
Oh |
| [00:43.35] |
But that was alright with me |
| [00:50.83] |
Cause I loved her from a distance |
| [00:55.03] |
Like an angel watching from afar |
| [00:59.84] |
I never had the nerve to mention |
| [01:04.41] |
The fire burning in my heart |
| [01:10.37] |
I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance |
| [01:14.99] |
So I did the best I could |
| [01:19.07] |
And I loved her from a distance |
| [01:24.63] |
The Homecoming dance of our senior year |
| [01:29.03] |
I finally got my courage up enough to overcome my fears |
| [01:34.13] |
I would have asked her to dance |
| [01:37.58] |
But her boyfriend never gave me a chance |
| [01:43.33] |
Every step of every song they swung the night away |
| [01:48.52] |
And I wish I could have wrapped my arms around her waist |
| [01:52.81] |
And told her how I cared |
| [01:56.62] |
Instead I only stood there and stared |
| [02:03.30] |
But I kept loving her from a distance |
| [02:07.91] |
Like an angel watching from afar |
| [02:12.79] |
I never had the nerve to mention |
| [02:17.39] |
The fire burning in my heart |
| [02:23.38] |
I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance |
| [02:27.96] |
So I did the best I could |
| [02:32.08] |
And I loved her from a distance |
| [02:51.86] |
The other night I saw her |
| [02:54.60] |
First time in years |
| [02:57.08] |
My heart skipped a beat when she came walking near |
| [03:01.51] |
In those faded blue jeans |
| [03:04.48] |
She's still the prettiest girl I've seen |
| [03:11.12] |
And much to my surprise she said hello |
| [03:15.13] |
And that she loved listening to me singing on the radio |
| [03:19.75] |
I said that's a funny funny thing |
| [03:23.72] |
Cause your in every song I sing |
| [03:30.45] |
Yes I've been loving you from a distance |
| [03:35.35] |
Since you were only seventeen |
| [03:39.77] |
But I never had the nerve to mention |
| [03:44.52] |
The feelings flowing inside me |
| [03:50.41] |
I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance |
| [03:55.01] |
So I poured my heart into the music that I made |
| [04:01.01] |
And I kept loving you from a distance |
| [04:06.93] |
Oh and now we have a story book romance |
| [04:12.05] |
And I know one thing's for sure |
| [04:18.45] |
This love can go the distance |
