To Lose My Edge.....

�.finding the words I want to say
'cause it's personal
this thing
between me and you
searching my mind
I cannot find
a lyric that will adequately
do what I need it to do

my intellect can easily
distinguish the right, the wrong-
the �point of it all�
in retrospect, it still doesn't matter
My love, my soul.....my whole being
still longs for you (lest I fall).....

�.a grossly, almost cliched line
�Sometimes you cross my mind�
So intense-I don't know what to do with my self

Desperately
�� I Just
�� want to call your phone

not knowing nor caring whether or not he's home
wanting to speak �sweet nothings� to you
or simply hear you breathe.....that alone would do
I think I'm beginning to understand the meaning,
your proclamation of me being �your friend�
but after 20 years of loving and adoring you

Baby, where does this friend-zone end?

Standing on the edge
unsafely teetering,
my rational thought no longer rational
my heart beating; my love for you fleeting
not seeing or really caring for anything else
just me and you

willing to risk it all, matters a damn to me
how far I got to fall
(�..and though I love her too)

still my heart belongs to you
and now I'm standing on the edge......

I used to be able to call on you when I
found myself about to jump (or fall)
you always knew what to do baby
to reel me back in
your �friend� that you found so easy to love
truth be told, I am your man in the �moon and the stars above�

but the cruel irony is that
��
you
�� are now
�� my edge� (what can I do?)

I stand so perilously close..........to the �edge� of you
