Take me down I'm feeling now And if I move on I admit you're gone I ain't ready I'll hold steady I'll hold you in my arms You're locked inside my heart Your melody's an art I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time Through the eye of the needle Step and repeat Tears fall to the beat Smile through pain Feel the acid rain I ain't ready I'll hold steady I'll hold you in my arms, in my arms, in my arms You're locked inside my heart Your melody's an art I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time Through the eye of the needle My bags heavy Been filled by me They weigh me down Carry them round It's all mine all mine I am blinded by the eye of the needle You're locked inside my heart Your melody's an art I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time Through the eye of the needle You're locked inside my heart Your melody's an art I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time Through the eye of the needle
