I hear the echo of a voice singing that the end
The end is not as fun as the start
Ten thousand hours of falling since calling you by my name, yeah
And then the images of Rome and of you and I
Dancing drunk on liquor under the moonlight
Ten thousand hours of thinking I should write you but I don't
And you don't
Sipping on a juice while lying at the pool side
At the edge of paradise
Acting like I don't care when I see you stare
I'm there at the edge of paradise
And I never felt quite like this before, oh
It's breaking me in two now
When I look at you I stand
At the edge of paradise
I know the words you're trying to say's better left unsaid
Yet I beg you desperately to say them
Say your desire and lift me higher than I've ever been
I feel the pounding of my heart as I know you're there
On the other side of a paper thin wall
I wish I could sneak in to see you sleeping naked in my bed
Sipping on a juice while lying at the pool side
At the edge of paradise
Acting like I don't care when I see you stare
I'm there at the edge of paradise
And I never felt quite like this before, oh
It's breaking me in two now
When I look at you I stand
At the edge of paradise
Later, you say
Later, what does that even mean?
It lingers on in me when you say
Later, you say later, later
Wish I could be stuck there
Spend an endless summer
At the edge of paradise
Sipping on a juice while lying at the pool side
At the edge of paradise
Acting like I don't care when I see you stare at me
Edge of paradise
And I never felt quite like this before, oh
It's breaking me in two now
When I look at you I stand
At the edge of paradise
