Michelle Branch – Standing On The Edge lyrics
I'm not asking for much
But I need a little time to find
What it is I want
And is it you this time?

I wish I could know you better
I wish I could know myself
I want it to be forever
But now I see it's only me

Chorus:
Standing on the edge of the world
And I don't want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can't learn to love you
If you're all I know

I saw you waiting there
Across the parking lot
October never felt so cold
You were looking for
All the things you know I'm not
And believe me I've tried
I've tried, I've tried, oh

I thought that I knew you better
Than I knew myself

Chorus:
Standing on the edge of the world
And I don't want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can't learn to love you
If you're all I know

Bridge:
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Don't let it change your mind
Uh-oh, uh-oh
On and on and on and on....

Chorus:
Standing on the edge of the world
And I don't want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can't learn to love you,
I can't learn to love you, whoa-oh
I can't learn to love you
If you're all I know...
