Found myself with the same conditions
After sleeping a week just to kick that addiction
But the girl I followed home kept on plugging my brain again
Each long day was a hard fought dread but I kept her sane
With a little known fact she'd be hopeless to resist
All the things she missed
[Chorus 1]
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough, and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me safe
I was wrong, but thats my only game
Kept my watch but the view was hazy
As I proved to myself that I'm still not crazy
But the girls always found a way to make me come unhinged again.
So I start to think that I'd do much better
Just to drop out of site disappear forever
Cuz I knew she would be pissed when she finds out I exist
[Chorus 2]
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough, and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me safe
It was love and we couldn't take it
Figured I just hang back till I found your flame
I was wrong but thats my only game
Trust this crooked smile cuz you got nothing left to lose
And it seems so long for something came along
That could give me something to prove
[Chorus x2]
It was love, love from far away
It was love, love from far away
