We used to say

That come the day

When we'd all be making songs

Or finding better words

These ideas never lasted long



The way is up

Along the road

The air is growing thin

Too many friends who tried

Were blown off this mountain with the wind



Meet on the ledge

We're gonna meet on the ledge

When your time is up you're gonna meet all your friends

Meet on the ledge

We're gonna meet on the ledge

If you really mean it, it all comes round again 



So here I sit

I'm all alone

But that's the only way to be

You'll have your chance again

Then you can do the work for me
