UB40 - Lisa lyrics

I admire you from afar
You've changed the way I see
I used to think that I
Should make you be like me
But after this short time
Watching what you do i realise that I
Should strive to be like you

Whenever I am near you i tread so awkwardly
Afraid someone may steal you
I guard you jealously

Then sing the world your praises
Let everybody know
That I just saw the future
A place I want to go

I admire you from afar

I hear you when you're talking
Untouched simplicity alive with expectations
In search of what might be

I admire you from afar

Then sing the world your praises

I hear you when you're talking

Then sing the world your praises

I hear you when you're talking

Then sing the world your praises
