Paul Young - Standing on the Edge lyrics

He has had the secret sold to him The door was open and you're shaking in anticipation Let your down just when you let him in Now you only have to dance away the night again Lately, lonely He was old but never felt so young Like a lion to the slaughtered lamb He watched you crumble Walked away before the dance begun Still he says that he has loved you Like he loved no other The best kept secret hidden years Is still wrapped up with pride and fear Standing on the edge of love, moving round in circles Turning Standing on the edge of love, moving round Back to safety, back to well worn womb Back to someone who is nothing more than pa**ing time Back to dreaming all that love lost grooms Does it make you want to scream in anger, cry with rage The best kept secret hidden years Is still wrapped up with pride and fear Standing on the edge of love, moving round in circles Turning Standing on the edge of love, moving round, moving round Standing on the edge of love, moving round in circles Turning Standing on the edge of love, moving round, moving round Oh-ho
