The edge

Sep 24, 2007 23:17

And I wish that things were different
Yet I wish they were the same
I wish that I could tell you
All that I want to say
But time and it's conventions
Are moving against us
So I wish that things were different
While I wish they were the same

And I'm standing at the edge of the world
And I'm watching life pass me by
And I'm falling in love with you
While I wonder, if you could ever, love me too

And I know that by every rule
I must wait for you to move
I worry what our friends will say
About how it will effect everything
But I can't deny what's going on
I don't believe it's really wrong
And yet I know how it must look
And so my lips are sealed to you

And I'm standing at the edge of the world
And I'm watching life pass me by
And I'm falling in love with you
While I wonder, if you could ever, love me too

And I'm contemplating running
And jumping off the edge
Falling into life like I've fallen in with you
If I jumped would you catch me
Or would you get out of the way
Can you ever tell me that you really feel this way
Cause I think I'm going to do it
And then I'll be committed

And I'm standing at the edge of the world
And I'm watching life pass me by
And I'm falling in love with you
While I wonder, if you could ever, love me too

And I know that the conventions say
That you get to make the first move
But how would you respond if I told you
That I've fallen in love with you

And I'm standing at the edge of the world
And I'm watching life pass me by
And I'm falling in love with you
While I wonder, if you could ever, love me too.
