About This Song: (lyrics below)
To be honest with you I’m not quite sure what the hell this song is about! Freedom? Present moment awareness? Whatever. It sure feels good to sing it! :o) What do YOU think it’s about?
Edge of Time
Song #99 | March 1988 | CD: Coming soon!
Time is hope and Time is power
Time is something we can’t live without
I was very young when I was first told
Time is something that makes you old
Time is something that makes you old
Caution cannot save a soul from death
I can smell your weakness on your breath
The world turns on into the night
Without a thought for our human plight (repeat)
Without a thought for our human plight
Refrain:
Have you ever seen the wind?
Have you seen tall buildings bend?
What do you lose? What do you find?
When you live on the edge of Time?
When you live on the edge of Time?
Mountains rise and mountains fall
David answers Goliath’s call
Desert wind leans touching down
Essence captured in a thistle down
Essence captured in a thistle down
Refrain:
Bridge:
The way your light comes down it carries me
And leads my heart into your silent sea
It’s so hopeful I can finally see
I can’t explain just why I feel so free
I know someday it will come back to me
It’s so hopeful I can finally see…
It’s so hopeful I can finally see…
Build your buildings on the rock
Get your saxophone out of hock
Tonight we dance as if tomorrow we die
Tomorrow we continue to learn to fly…
Tomorrow we continue to learn to fly…
Refrain:
