"The Edge" lyrics

Saw you last in July
There were tears in your eyes
When you said you didn't know
Just what you wanted
We weren't in love but we were pretty damn close
When you said you had to go
Couldn't finish what you started

And the season without you was relentless
But it finally came to an end
And I thought that I was all but over it
When you called and said
You had a few things left on your chest

So I'll try not to pry when you say
You've been having a hard time lately
And I'll try not to find a hidden meaning in the way
You said "Something has been missing since that summer"
And that's the summer where I slept on the edge of your bed
And we were kissing 'til we couldn't breathe
And you believed in me, you believed in me

I made up a lie, "I left something of mine"
I knew it'd be awkward but I thought you might try
Feeding off the tension, so sweet we can't help it
I don't wanna leave you but I won't survive

Another moment of holding my breath and
Hoping we'd find a way back

So I'll try not to pry when you say
You've been having a hard time lately
And I'll try not to find a hidden meaning in the way
You said "Something has been missing since that summer"
And that's the summer where I slept on the edge of your bed
And we were kissing 'til we couldn't breathe
And you believed in me, you believed in me

We weren't in love but we were pretty damn close
When you said you had to go
Couldn't finish what you started
