Lyrics
(Bob Crewe and Kenny Nolan) (Originally by The Four Seasons) (Chorus:) My eyes adored ya Though I never laid a hand on you My eyes adored ya Like a million miles away from me You couldn't see how I adored ya So close, so close and yet so far Carried your books from school Playin' "make-believe you're married to me" You were fifth-grade, I was sixth When we came to be Walkin' home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay Till we grew into the me and you Went our separate ways (Chorus) Headed for city lights Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame I worked my fingers to the bone Made myself a name Funny I seemed to find That no matter how the years unwind Still I reminisce 'bout the girl I miss And the love I left behind (Chorus) (My eyes adored ya) All my life I will remember (Though I never laid a hand on you) How warm and tender we were way back then, whoa, whoa, baby (Like a million miles away from me You couldn't see how I adored ya) Oh, the feeling, sad regrets (So close, so close and yet so far) I know I won't ever forget ya, my childhood friend (My eyes adored ya) (Though I never laid a hand on you) (My eyes adored ya) (Like a million miles away from me You couldn't see how I adored ya) (Fade) So close, so close and yet so far
