On the brink of the cliff hanging
Over a wide river she stood
Gazing at the sky, heart aching
Long walk of memories sting
Road of being misunderstood
On the brink of the cliff hanging
Broken promises, heart bleeding
Expectation not what it should
Gazing at the sky, heart aching
In the summer and in the spring
Tried to make amends as they could
On the brink of the cliff hanging
It didn’t work and so baffling
Together of unlikelihood
Gazing at the sky, heart aching
They have to move on, that’s the thing
It’s for the best for what it should
On the brink of the cliff hanging
Gazing at the sky, heart aching*
