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…
