Edge of Her Youth

Didn’t have as much fun as a child as she should have

Didn’t try all the things in the past that she could have

A little aloof at school never felt real connected

With a spark inside that others detected

Knew it would shine through in time

CHORUS:

Standing on the Edge of her Youth

Looking for something that feels like the truth

Looking back on the things she had done, and the things she had left

had left behind

She’s been a mother, a daughter, a sister and a lover

Every night alone she hopes to discover

Where did it all go? What did I do? When will I recover?

When do I get to be me?

CHORUS

Standing on the Edge of her Youth, looking forward and looking back

Standing on the Edge of her Youth, but it seems like so many things

had faded to black

(Instrumental)

CHORUS

Standing on the Edge of her Youth, looking forward and looking back

Standing on the Edge of her Youth, but it seems like so many things

had faded to black
