Just another bar
With loud guitars
Smoke and 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 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
