I keep you down inside my heart We watch the whole world fall apart And melt into an ether sea You failed to take me by the hand I failed to make you understand That all I wanted was your hands On me I'm captured in your eye Am I an inch away from heaven? And there's too many sad goodbyes Am I an inch away from heaven? And just a little higher now Am I an inch away from heaven? Am I an inch away from heaven? The walls have ears The stones have names We gave in all our silly games I knew I'd never let you go And there is no one I can blame Because your heart remained the same I swear I'll never let you go I'm captured in your eye Am I an inch away from heaven? And there's too many sad goodbyes Am I an inch away from heaven? And just a little higher now 'Cause every day I die for this Am I an inch away from heaven? Am I to be tortured And not be the victim All twisted up by my own pride Am I to be stranded Just waving my arms in the air While you're trying to lie I'm captured in your eye Am I an inch away from heaven? And there's too many sad goodbyes Am I an inch away from heaven? And just a little higher now 'Cause we're so close and far from this Am I an inch away from heaven?
