Edge of the World - Runrig

Edge of the World Lyrics

All the homes on the globe are like the television in your eyes
A cross guarding your heart the living years a sacrificeA shiver at the door in the night, clouds cross a black moonlight
Rushing on down to the sound of a turning worldThere's a south by sou'westerly force eight coming in strong
Across the continental shelf from the cold gray Malin beyondThe need to keep control, the need to stand alone
At the edge of the world, at the edge of the world, at the edge of the worldThe adrenalin infrastructure bringing on it's troubles some more
All the laws of the jungle stranded on your latest shoreBut the waves hold the healer force, the years disappear like a ghost
Somewhere out of the sight of the night and the light of dayNow civilization groans and the news reel cries
Like a drowning man his life in front of his eyesBut the need to keep control, the need to bare the soul
At the edge of the world, at the edge of the world, at the edge of the worldAnd the man from St. Kilda went over the cliff on a winters day
At the edge of the world, at the edge of the world, at the edge of the worldAt the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
