We used to say   That come the day   When 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   Were blown off this mountain with the wind      Meet on the ledge   We're gonna meet on the ledge   When your time is up you're gonna meet all your friends   Meet on the ledge   We're gonna meet on the ledge   If you really mean it, it all comes round again       So here I sit   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
