Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Things aren't quite as they seem

Inside my domain

She can't know 'bout everything

Only pleasure and pain

[Verse 2]

You wonder why I come here

With head to my hands

Where else can I be cured?

And the king of your mansion

[Verse 3]

A thorn in your side

And a child to protect

That claims he's free

[Verse 4]

Just around the corner

Half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

Starved for some affection

[Verse 5]

Darling, come quickly

Come, ease my mind

For my prayers have not been answered

In a long time

[Verse 6]

I've already made my bed

Like it or not

As long as there's no regrets

I'll be here when the ride stops

[Verse 7]

These comforts to me

And these crosses to bear

With which we live

[Verse 8]

Just around the corner

Half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

Starved for some affection

Baby, I can't drag you into this mess

[Verse 9]

I'm the thorn in your side

And the child to protect

Yes, yes I'm

[Verse 10]

Just around the corner

Half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

Starved for some affection

[Verse 11]

Darling, come quickly

Come, ease my worried mind

For my prayers have not been answered

In a long time

[Verse 12]

I'm just around the corner

Yea-yea-yeah

So I'm strong enough to hold you

Yes, I am

Half a mile to heaven, yeah

Just around the corner
