The only thing I could do for you is stay unnoticed Although these unravelling feelings can't stop aching for you I can only look at you from afar never getting any closer Because if I do, I just might lose it Even if you have acknowledged these feelings of mine You know that I can't let you go as far as my arm's reach Since I don't want for you to disappear in front of me Wherever you go, I'll always follow you Never wanting to let you out of my sight Just hoping one day you could return to me these same feelings That's why I'll wait and only follow you from behind These encounters only draw us closer than you think For each one, it makes me want you even more for myself However, I can't love you the same way you would love me As my existence start to vanish from you The distance between us start to widen yet again As the pain we share begins to hurt our broken hearts As we confront one another, our true desires start to surface Soon we start to go back to how things once were But this time we know how each one of us feels about the other As you walk ahead, I'll walk from behind you If you fall, I'll catch you and continue walking again If you stop, I'll grab hold of your hand and walk forward If you start to cry, I'll cry with you until you are satisfied No matter how far apart we were, we began to get closer If you continue to walk down this road I'll be right behind you Since I'll always be chasing after you from behind

Chasing After You
The only thing I could do for you is stay unnoticed Although these unravelling feelings can't stop aching for you I can only look at you from afar never getting any closer Because if I do, I just might lose it Even if you have acknowledged these feelings of mine You know that I can't let you go as far as my arm's reach Since I don't want for you to disappear in front of me Wherever you go, I'll always follow you Never wanting to let you out of my sight Just hoping one day you could return to me these same feelings That's why I'll wait and only follow you from behind These encounters only draw us closer than you think For each one, it makes me want you even more for myself However, I can't love you the same way you would love me As my existence start to vanish from you The distance between us start to widen yet again As the pain we share begins to hurt our broken hearts As we confront one another, our true desires start to surface Soon we start to go back to how things once were But this time we know how each one of us feels about the other As you walk ahead, I'll walk from behind you If you fall, I'll catch you and continue walking again If you stop, I'll grab hold of your hand and walk forward If you start to cry, I'll cry with you until you are satisfied No matter how far apart we were, we began to get closer If you continue to walk down this road I'll be right behind you Since I'll always be chasing after you from behind
