Standing...
Right on the edge of saying good-bye
Staring and silently cursing the hands of time
I hear we're two worlds apart
That I can't be where you are

[CHORUS:]
I hold my breath and hold on tight
Try to stop the world tonight but
It keeps on spinning
So I'll take these memories in my mind
Try to bring 'em back to life
Kiss you one last time and walk away
Or I could... stay

No way
Its not like this thing was meant to last
I'd be crazy for taking that kind of chance
The time we had.. I wont forget
But I gotta go, so this is it

[CHORUS]

And do what that I'm supposed to do
Or stay and get on that plane and play it safe
Or stay...
I hold my breath and hold on tight
Try to stop the world tonight...

[CHORUS]

Standing...
Right on the edge of saying good-bye
