Corey Smith - From A Distance lyrics

Amanda was a small town blonde haired beauty

She had Heaven in her eyes and could light up a room

When she walked into view, she was the prettiest girl in my school

And I knew she'd never give me the time of day

No girls like her ever looked twice my way

She was out of my league

Oh, but that was alright with me

Cause I loved her from a distance

Like an angel watching from afar

I never had the nerve to mention

The fire burning in my heart

I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance

So I did the best I could

And I loved her from a distance

The Homecoming dance of our senior year

I finally got my courage up enough to overcome my fears

I would have asked her to dance

But her boyfriend never gave me a chance

Every step of every song they swung the night away

And I wish I could have wrapped my arms around her waist

And told her how I cared

Instead I only stood there and stared

But I kept loving her from a distance

Like an angel watching from afar

I never had the nerve to mention

The fire burning in my heart

I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance

So I did the best I could

And I loved her from a distance

The other night I saw her, first time in years

My heart skipped a beat when she came walking near

In those faded blue jeans

She's still the prettiest girl I've seen

And much to my surprise she said hello

And that she loved listening to me singing on the radio

I said that's a funny funny thing

Cause your in every song I sing

Yes I've been loving you from a distance

Since you were only seventeen

But I never had the nerve to mention

The feelings flowing inside me

I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance

So I poured my heart into the music that I made

And I kept loving you from a distance

Oh and now we have a story book romance

And I know one thing's for sure

This love can go the distance
