From Afar Lyrics

You told me 'boy look the other way'
You told me 'boy bite your tongue'
Yes that's not the way,
Yeah that's not the way
Ah that's just not the way that friends behave
Ah that's just not the way that friends behave
Oh no, no, no,
No, no, no, no

You lined me up
Across the room
Two falling sparks
One willing fool
And I, I always knew
That I would love you from afar

You told me 'boy look the other way'
You told me 'boy hide those hands'
Well I've been living on the crumbs of your love
And I'm starving now

And that is just the way that we remain
Ah that will be the way that we remain
Oh no no no
No no no no

You lined me up
Across the room
Two falling sparks
One willing fool
And I, I always knew
That I would love you from afar

You lined me up
Across the room
Two falling sparks
One willing fool
And I, I always knew
That I would love you from afar

It shouldn't come as a surprise
What I'm feeling, what I'm feeling now
It shouldn't come as a surprise
She got darling hazel eyes

It shouldn't come as a surprise
What I'm feeling, what I'm feeling now

It shouldn't come as a surprise
What I'm feeling, what I'm feeling now

It shouldn't come as a surprise
What I'm feeling, what I'm feeling now

It shouldn't come as a surprise
What I'm feeling, what I'm feeling now

What is the Meaning of From Afar?

I guess this song is about being in love with a good friend of yours, a fact that in most cases doesn't have a happy ending and you end up loving him/ her from a distance. There is this taboo that friends shall remain friends and never get somewhere more personal, but really why? Is there something better than falling in love with someone that you had all the time to get to know and you weren't afraid to show them who you really are?
