An inch (plural: inches; abbreviation or symbol: in or ″ – a double prime) is the name of a unit of length in a number of different systems, including Imperial units, and United States customary units. There are 36 inches in a yard and 12 inches in a foot. Corresponding units of area and volume are the square inch and the cubic inch.
The inch is a commonly used customary unit of length in the United States,Canada, and the United Kingdom. For the United Kingdom, guidance on public sector use states that since 1 October 1995, without time limit, that the inch (along with the mile, yard and foot) is to be used as a primary unit for road signs and related measurements of distance and speed and may continue to be used as a secondary or supplementary indication following a metric measurement for other purposes.
From July 1, 1959, the United States and countries of the British Commonwealth defined the length of the international yard to be exactly 0.9144 metres. Consequently, the international inch is defined as exactly 25.4 millimetres. This creates a slight difference between the international units and American surveyor's units which are described in the article on the foot.

I keep you down inside my heart
We watch the whole world fall apart
And melt into an ether sea
You failed to take me by the hand
I failed to make you understand
That all I wanted was your hands
On me
I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
Am I an inch away from heaven?
Am I an inch away from heaven?
The walls have ears
The stones have names
We gave in all our silly games
I knew I'd never let you go
And there is no one I can blame
Because your heart remained the same
I swear I'll never let you go
I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
'Cause every day I die for this
Am I an inch away from heaven?
Am I to be tortured
And not be the victim
All twisted up by my own pride
Am I to be stranded
Just waving my arms in the air
While you're trying to lie
I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
'Cause we're so close and far from this
