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 I'm 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
