Lyrics

[Verse 1] From the corner of my eye There's a tear I'm trying to cry But the feeling can't be found Like a note thrills in a song When I play it again, it's gone 'Cause it was never in the sound [Pre-Chorus] And it keeps me wanting That mysterious thing Like a night is waiting for a dawn [Chorus] Every prayer I say (a little closer) To my resting place (a little closer) Where my final breath Is the beginning To never needing And I will find my last Amen [Verse 2] I could swear I have two hearts One to stay, one to depart This sad, tragic kingdom And it burns me down to the core Because I know there's so much more It's just a pale reflection [Pre-Chorus] And it keeps me wanting That mysterious thing Like an outcast waiting to belong [Chorus] Every prayer I say (a little closer) To my resting place (a little closer) Where my final breath Is the beginning To never needing And I will find my last Amen [Bridge] And while the thrills are fading The joy is in the waiting Somewhere in the grand design It's good to be unsatisfied It keeps the faith and hope A little more alive [Chorus] Ooh (a little closer) Ooh (a little closer) Where my final breath Is the beginning To never needing And I will find my last Amen [Outro] My last amen Amen My last amen Amen
