At The Edge (David Crosby/CPR)


Our grasp is so fragile
The thread is so thin
I wonder each day
if I'm blowing away
I know that I'm lucky
I wouldn't be here at all
if somebody's hand
hadn't been where I stand
At the edge of a very great fall

And like a lighthouse before
you at the edge of the sea
the woman whose grip
holds when you slip
But the darkness won't get you
Your family won't go
They will make your heart light
to where you know what is right
And you go where you know
you should go

And it's life and it's dying
It's beginning and ends
It's what did you do
with the life they gave you
It's were you that honest, and
did you make amends
to all the ones under your guns
How have you treated your friends
