We were both children when
So full of innocence
We used to play our games in flowery fields
You're the one who could see
The good inside of me
And I knew then that I had something real
I used to love you from afar
As we all decided who we are
But you were never mine to have
Still I loved you to the last
Because you were my, you are my always
For years my feelings grew
But I was losing you
The only happiness I'd ever known
Another came along
And slowly won your heart
I cared enough for you to let you go
I used to love you from afar
As we all decided who we are
You were never mine to have
Still I loved you to the last
Because you were my, you are my always
A thousand times the words just died right on my lips
Regret came over me with its swift and stinging kiss
I used to love you from afar
As we all decided who we are
You were never mine to have
Still I loved you to the last
Because you were my, you are my always
