So Close Yet So Far

I tried to,
Talk to you and,
Don't know what I was,
Thinking when I said that I could,
Make your dreams come true.
What do I have to do?
Please, can you help me?
So now who's this guy,
Trying to ruin my life?
Standing, talking to you,
As if it were that easy.
He doesn't need any lines,
The girls all think he's so fine,
If you only knew,
It's driving me crazy.

He's not right,
I'm your guy.

You see me,
Staring at you across the,
Dance room floor,
Knowing no other guy could,
Want you more,
But here I am,
So close, yet so far.

I saw you pass me by,
And then I caught your eye,
You smile but I know,
You don't mean it.
Now enters your new guy,
And he's just in time,
To stop me trying,
As if it's even worth it.
And all I want is a chance,
To ask you to the dance,
Maybe I could just meet,
You there, or something.
But then there's still that guy,
If only he would die,
But then I guess you'd be,
Mourning him, or something.

He's not right,
I'm your guy.

You see me,
Staring at you across the,
Dance room floor,
Knowing no other guy could,
Want you more,
But here I am,
So close, yet so far.

And I don't know,
What to say to you,
Just one little chance,
Is all I'm asking you for.

You see me,
Staring at you across the,
Dance room floor,
Knowing no other guy could,
Want you more,
But here I am,
So close, yet so far,
So close, yet so far.
