The Kick Inside - Inches From The Ground lyrics

<b>Inches From The Ground</b> by <i>The Kick Inside</i><br />Though this confession may come as some surprise,

It's been a long while since I first rehearsed these lines.

Better judgement delayed me until now, but the grapevine betrayed my vow.

It's a problem, I will admit to that.

Albeit one upon which we'll look back and laugh.

If the sentence about to pass my lips,

Meets the kind ear I dreamt it did

Lately I've followed you around, and I've found myself inches from the ground

Please forgive me this one and only vice.

It's just a compliment that wears a crude disguise.

It's obsession by any other name and a source of unceasing shame.

Every corner affords a different view,

Of all that's thus far been a trivial pursuit.

I'll surrender the sordid shards of truth, for the taste of forbidden fruit.

Lately I've followed you around, and I've found myself inches from the ground
