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 veerybody know
   That I just saw the future
   A place I want to go

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