RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Meet On The Ledge

(Richard Thompson)



We used to say "There'd come the day we'd all be making songs

Or finding better words" These ideas never lasted long



The way is up along the road, the air is growing thin

Too many friends who tried, blown off this mountain with the wind



Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

When my time is up, I'm going to see all my friends

Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

If you really mean it, it all comes around again



Yet now I see, I'm all alone, but that's the only way to be

You'll have your chance again, then you can do the work for me



Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

When my time is up, I'm going to see all my friends

Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

If you really mean it, it all comes around again

Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

When my time is up, I'm going to see all my friends

Meet on the ledge, we're going to meet on the ledge

If you really mean it, it all comes around again
