I saw you today in the city
Like so many times before
We started a brief conversation
And it turned into something more.
Your eyes, your eyes they’d surround me
An ocean, peaceful and warm
My heart, my heart it was fallin’
Into the eye of the storm
BRIDGE:
Oh but something stands between us two
I have her, and he has you
What can we do?
REFRAIN:
We can have a pure love
A love from afar
A pure love wherever we are
We can’t be lovers,
But we can be friends
With pure love that will never end
If only I’d met you last winter
There’d be no other love to forsake
And nobody’s heart would be broken
By a lover’s careless mistake
But I’ll always be happy to see you
Whenever we met here by chance
We’ll raise up our glasses in friendship
And toast to our would-be romance
BRIDGE 2:
Coz there’s something strong between us two
I have her, and he has you
Repeat REFRAIN
