At the Edge (4:21)
|
Words: David Crosby
|
Music: CPR
|
|
Our grasp is so fragile the thread is so thin
|
I wonder each day if I¡¯m blowing away
|
I know that I¡¯m lucky
|
I wouldn¡¯t be here at all if somebody¡¯s hand
|
hadn¡¯t been where I stand
|
at the edge of a very great fall
|
|
And like a lighthouse before you at the edge of the sea
|
the woman whose grip holds when you slip
|
But the darkness won¡¯t get you
|
Your family won¡¯t go
|
they will make your heart light
|
to where you know what is right
|
and you go where you know you should go
|
|
And it¡¯s life and it¡¯s dying
|
it¡¯s beginnings and end
|
it¡¯s what did you do
|
with the life they gave you?
|
It¡¯s were you the honest, and
|
did you make amends
|
To all the ones under your guns
|
How have you treated your friends
