Half an inch is all I need to know
Just how every mile of this will go
But all your reasons are your own
And we won’t be alone

I’d like to look at you closer
I’d like to feel for a switch
Find out which rope I should pull on
And meet you at the end of it

I could tell you anything you like
Invent a war and say I’m on your side
And rest my head upon the lie
That I tried to be kind

Nobody’s catching on fire
No one will fall through the floor
I hope you don’t take it badly
‘Cause I don’t bother anymore

If you go
You won’t falter
Only the shadow of doubt
That is bound to cross your mind
Looking back
You will never quite be sure
If I was a flame
Or if I was the tunnel ‘round your light
