From the recording The Edge
Lyrics
Yes it’s true, life ain’t long
Lived your life like one long song
A sweet symphony with crescendos and rests
And if you can’t come back down
I’ll sing this song out loud
Move away
From the razor’s edge
Don’t throw it all away
You’ve gone away
But the song remains
Carry on just the same
Played the part
Who could forget
It’s with you now
I realize
I should have spent
Much more time
And if you can’t hear me now
I blame myself somehow
Called your name
Down to the razor’s edge
Don’t throw it all away
You’ve gone away
Such a crying shame
But love for you remains
Tossing and turning
Head starts a burning
Anger toward you once in vain
I can’t deny – I tripped on the same wire
Just like you
Consumed by the edge
But I clawed my way free
Regretfully
Too late to reach out my hand
Move away
From the razor’s edge
Don’t throw it all away
You’ve gone away
Such a crying shame
My heart, my friend, just breaks
I think of you
Now you’re gone
I called to you
And sing this song
And if you don’t hear me now
Well, my heart will cry out loud
