Sitting At the Edge of the World


Sitting at the edge of the world
Talking with my friend
Watching the sun in her eyes
Knowing we'll speak the same words
And meanwhile I close my eyes and drift away
Close my eyes and drift away

Sitting at the edge of the world
Watching the sun turn round below us
Listening to the roar of the sky
Hoping we live in the same world -
Meanwhile I close my eyes and drift away
Close my eyes and drift away...

And all my noses broken
And all my sleep is woken
And all my comfort shattered
Though I don't think it matters
Any more
Oh no
No no no
Oh no
'Cos I'm sitting at the edge of the world

Sitting at the edge of the world
Talking with my friend
Watching the sun in her eyes
Knowing we'll speak the same words
And meanwhile I close my eyes and drift away
Close my eyes and drift away

And all my noses broken
And all my sleep is woken
And all my comfort shattered
Though I don't think it matters
Any more
Oh no
No no no
Oh no
'Cos I'm sitting at the edge of the world

Oh I'm sitting at the edge
At the edge of the world
Yes I'm sitting at the edge
At the edge of the world

Sitting at the edge
At the edge of the world
Yes I'm sitting at the edge
At the edge of the world

Oh no don't push me over
Oh no don't pull me back
Oh no don't pull me over
Oh no don't push me back
