The Edge
by Sandi Klaehn
Walking on a razor's edge,
Something troubles me.
Walking on a knife's edge,
What is it I should see?
Walking on the river's edge,
Why won't it let me be?
Walking on the water's edge,
Why can't I just be free?
Walking on the rainbow edge,
I've got some dreams to see.
Walking on the future's edge,
I'll do what's right for me!
Walking on at life's edge,
I'll see what I will see.
Walking on the dreamer's edge,
I'll do the best for me.
Walking on the razor's edge,
Something troubles me.
