Up here alone in this room

Watching you come into view

Off in the distance where I want you to stay

Can't get you out of my mind

I'm tired of passing the time

I've got your picture and all I can do is try to look away

You're in my telescope

You don't wanna get too close

It's easy to stay where you feel safe

You circle around at night and shine like a satellite

It's easier when you're far away

You disappear in the crowd

I scream but don't make a sound

I never know when you might come back again

So close but don't let me in

You still get under my skin:and it's showing

And all I can do is try to look away

You're in my telescope

You don't wanna get too close

It's easy to stay where you feel safe

You circle around at night and shine like a satellite

It's easier when you're far away

I'm a fool for every move

For coming back to you

I'm a fool afraid of love

You're in a telescope

You don't wanna get too close

It's easy to stay where you feel safe

You're in my telescope

You don't wanna get too close

It's easy to stay where you feel safe

You circle around at night and shine like a satellite

It's easier when you're far away
