At the edge I stand holding your hand
Our bodies sway to the soundless band
Of the earth restlessly spinning
Eyes always returning to you
Is this love or just a phase?
Will I fall break and shatter
Into pieces that will cease to matter
All the while humming this phrase
Do you see the night sky my love?
Stars parading to the sound of your voice
Bright moon waxing and waning at your command
All following the rise and fall of your hand
I step in rhythm until the sudden drop
Ground vanishing before I stop
Breathless panic giving way
Mind always returning to you
Is this love or just a phase?
Will I fall break and shatter
Into pieces that will cease to matter
All the while humming this phrase
Head aloud with stuttering pain
Rushing wind pulsing a refrain
Trembling limbs flailing out
Arms always returning to you
Off the edge I fall holding your hand
Our bodies sway to the soundless band
Of the earth restlessly spinning
Heart always returning to you.
