Standing at the Sky's Edge lyrics

Home >> Artists starting with R >> Richard Hawley Lyrics >> Standing at the Sky's Edge

Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
His hungry little children, he took their lives
This was the end of a desperate man
With only love in his eyes, no evil hands
He was standing at the sky’s edge
And out there who knows what he’s looking
He was sliding down the razor’s edge
And watched his life slowly sinking, away, away

Mary was a trouble girl, she stole to eat
She had to sell body to put shoes on her feet
Stole a car and tried to get away
Now all she hears is the rain on the roof
At sky’s edge jail
She was standing at the sky’s edge
And out there who knows what she’s thinking
She was sliding down the razor’s edge

And watched her life slowly sinking, away, away,

They were standing at the sky’s edge
And out there who knows what they’re thinking
They were sliding down the razor’s edge
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Away, away, away, away, away

So much fear in the city it carried him away
Young men fighting and loosing their lives
At night as the screech howls and the trees watch
Young men die

They were standing at the sky’s edge
And out there who knows what they’re thinking
They were sliding down the razor’s edge
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Away, away, away, away, away.
