I know that you love him
This I know is true
But  I love you from a distance
It's all that I can do

You've  been with him a long time
You have a life with him
Providing for your two girls
That's why you stay with him

Give them something you didn't have
This I understand
I'll never try to change that
I hope you understand

So I'll love you from a distance
That's what I have to do
But  I am just an old fool
Hopelessly in love with you
