And then it came at the end of all time A time where nothing grows old, nothing dies It's a place where you can fly all around, heaven is found Can't you see the bright lightning in sound? Close to the edge, I was running out of time Close to the edge, but now there's peace of mind And now I look to the north and I see in front of me A shining blue light in the distance, oh I see A castle of ivory gold, look out, behold It almost never became my home, no, no Close to the edge, I was running out of time Close to the edge, walking on a thin, thin line Close to the edge, the spotlight shines on you now Close to the edge, you better make your choice soon now Close to the edge, your heart's the key that makes you free Close to the edge, as the world blinds your eyes, God can make you see You're close to the edge Don't burn out the light, it ain't burning bright Son, can't you see where you're going, you're close to the edge Oh, well I know you cry, you don't wanna die, So take what I? ve found, and you'll be miles and miles from the edge You're close to the edge On the edge of the world there's only one rhyme But you ain't got the time to know what it means You're dead, you're dead Don't figure it out 'cause you're dead, oh you're dead On the edge of the world Close to the edge Close to the edge Close to the edge ...
