So if I get to heaven, will it be the same
Camping out like a weather vane
Standing at the corner, A card in my hands
No work and no future plans
Caught in the rain, I watch it travel right down the drain
Just need a little faith, hope and a charity
Saving me from myself, standing on the edge of the world
Saving me from myself, standing on the edge of the world
No one understands it, no one cares why
No one wants to see a grown man cry
Can't believe I've been, dealt such a cruel fate
And if help comes, I hope it won't be too late
I once asked a girl to marry me, back in the spring of '83
I always get so rearranged I stand outside of life so estranged
Caught in the rain, I watch it travel right down the drain
Saving me from myself, standing on the edge of the world
Saving me from myself, standing on the edge of the world
No one understands it, no one cares why
No one wants to see a grown man cry
Can't believe I've been, dealt such a cruel fate
And if help comes, I hope it won't be too late
It won't be too late
I hope it won't be late
I hope it won't be too late oh, yeah!
Know we've seen hard times
They've harder now, don't know which way to go
So if I get to heaven will it be the same,
Camping out like a weather vane
Standing at the corner
A card in my hands, No work and no future plan
Caught in the rain, and I watch it travel right down the drain
Caught in the rain, I watch my life travel right down the drain
