A Heartbeat Away

Winter came early this year

We barely had a moment 

To breathe the autumn air 


You crossed my heart, I hoped to die 

From the second I met you 

My soul could never lie 


Now I mourn for every minute 

We took for granted 

I wake alone 

Still dreaming of you

And I can barely stand it


We’re a heartbeat away from our deepest sorrow

A heartbeat away from loneliness

We’re a heartbeat away from no tomorrow 

But we’re only just a breath away from bliss 


Summer came, you weren’t here

We barely had a moment 

To shed another tear 


You crossed the bridge 

And took my heart 

From the second I met you 

Our souls would never part 


Now I mourn for every minute 

We took for granted 

I awake alone 

Still dreaming of you

And I can barely stand it


We’re a heartbeat away from our deepest sorrow

A heartbeat away from loneliness

We’re a heartbeat away from no tomorrow 

But we’re only just a breath away from bliss 


I wasn’t ready for you to leave 

Now I know what to believe 

You never left, we’re both still here

Two reflections of the same mirror 

Save my place in the Summerlands 

Until we meet again on crystal sands


We’re a heartbeat away from our deepest sorrow

A heartbeat away from loneliness

We’re a heartbeat away from no tomorrow 

But just a breath away from bliss 

Yes we’re only just a breath away from bliss
