Lying on the ledge beyond the edge

Lying on the ledge beyond the edge

I'm lying on the ledge beyond the edge
Just taking in the views
Taking in some late night reviews
Out there on a planet blue

I'm reviewing my September year
The highs and lows
The loves and loss
The hopes and fears
The anguish and tears

I'm lying here all draped in green lace
It's been a while since I last saw your face
Time ticks on, the world revolves
I'm on the ledge, conundrums to solve

From up here in the lighthouse
The world is looking blue
Sea and Sky and memories of two
I thought you knew me and that I knew you

Turning, spinning, whirling like a Dervish
On this world of blue
Writing, singing, listening to the music
Of the ocean in a lighthouse made for two

A year has passed
The tide has turned
September nights are calling me
Twinkling lights of Autumn light the cobbled streets
Calling poets and musicians their wares to entreat

Norway Square will soon be full
The Castle, Wink, the Queens too
Festival time has almost returned
Bob, Lol, Moon et al
Performing their magic, making it true

I'll dance and I'll party
I'll climb off my ledge
I'll leave the lighthouse
I'll go beyond the edge

Experiences new are out there waiting
Music and poetry and even dating
So I'll make new memories
I'll dance a new dance
I'll risk my heart again
I'll take one last chance...
