Edge of a Notion © 2017 Stephen A Schuster

 

Every change in my direction

Is the opposite from here

It’s the sweetest recollection

Of a sweeter time of year

 

In my chest my heart is pounding

Sounding steady as a drum

Waiting high up on the mountain

For the avalanche to come

 

Drop by drop we flow

Into a canyon that’s standing

At the edge of a notion

Till we stop and look below

We understand there’s a plan to get us ready to go

 

When it seems I’ve gone a-drifting

To a higher astral plane

Where my soul could use some lifting

From a singer’s sweet refrain

 

In my chest my heart is breaking

Aching every shade of blue

Every quest I’ve undertaken
Is my testament to you

 

Drop by drop we flow…

 

Deeper waters still run

Deeper waters still run

Carry me down, Arizona sun

Deeper waters still run

 

Every change in my direction

Is a thousand miles from here

Through a painful recollection

Every drop becomes a tear

 

Drop by drop we flow…
