|
You went off the river |
|
Smoke stacks fade to blind |
|
This town's my own, ridin'free and alone |
|
And I'm looking back |
|
Maybe I know some people |
|
Maybe I break some rules |
|
But this is the street, I've got to compete |
|
Baby, I ain't no fool |
|
*So I take a little bad with the good |
|
It ain't just black and white |
|
(It still ain't black and white) |
|
You've got to deal with the real |
|
Woo, living on the edge of the night |
|
Every wild desire |
|
Beckons from the dark |
|
I've made my bed but I can't risk my head |
|
While I still swim with sharks |
|
Everyone needs something |
|
Sometimes they don't know why |
|
But so much good's been misunderstood |
|
In the blink of the eye |
|
(Repeat *) |
|
You say that you don't like it |
|
Or maybe it's just my life |
|
So you live yours and I'll keep mine |
|
Rolling like a wheel through the city |
|
Living on the edge of the night |
|
And when the black rain's down |
|
In this cold gray town |
|
I'll be waiting |
|
Waiting at the edge of the night |
|
Woo, living on the edge of the night |
|
Woo, living on the edge of the night |
