Lyrics
It was a Bloody Mary morning I could see the train station
From my cafe table nursing my inebriation
My sunglasses just weren't doing their job
My eyes were screaming and my head began to throb
Last night you said you'd talk to me
If I promised to tell lies that's the way it had to be
I knew where this was going but I never was too wise
You had another man and it was me he would despise
I said I was the Captain of my own desire
An acrobat dancing way up on the High Wire
That brought a smile to your fake angel eyes
Yeah You Said you'd talk to me if I'd only tell you lies
I convinced myself everything was alright
At the edge of Heaven in the River of Light
Like Cinderella you had to run home
There was no glass slipper no that story was blown
The edge of Heaven in the River of Light
A Summer breeze with a Moon so bright
Bonfire for one alone in the Night
Laughing at myself in the River of Light
Solo
At the edge of Heaven in the River of Light
A Summer breeze with a Moon so bright
Bonfire for one alone in the Night
Laughing at myself in the River of Light
At the edge of Heaven in the River of Light
