lyrics

I think about your kiss, your touch
Before it hurts me too much
i try and remember the way we were
in the days long before the bell jar

I long to touch your skin
I long to let the sunshine in
instead im trapped here inside
As a little more of me dies

I have to love you from afar
Trapped here inside my bell jar

I live inside a gilded cage
I’m elderly before my age
I gave away my freedom
I couldn’t live out there with them

I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar

I lift the lid and sniff the air
I feel the sun on my skin
And the wind in my hair
I let you in, I let you in

I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar

I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar
