Standing On The Edge Lyrics - Cheap Trick

In the middle of the night 

I had a vision 

It was bigger than life 

Standing on the edge of my bed 

She said "Come here, don't be afraid" 

Her tongue opened like a shot 

Oh bang bang 

Ten feet tall, laser eyes 

Killer body, killer thighs 

She drew me a fine line 

What's wrong what's right 

I didn't know what to think 

She seemed to know what to drink 

I was stunned by her gun 

Couldn't walk, couldn't run 

Well she drew me a picture 

And it seemed so true 

Standing on the edge 

And watching my life flash by 

Standing on the edge 

She's lookin' right through my eyes 

Love is passin' by 

Right before my eyes 

And I'm wondering why 

What's the reason 

That I'm standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Right here in my face 

I had a vision 

That was bigger than life 

Oh Connie likes nighttime, every night 

Connie likes candy, every bite 

All day sucker, Connie might 

Swallow that thing 'cause she does it right 

I'm weak in the knees 

I'm beggin' you please 

Just ask for more 

She just wants affection 

My soldier's at attention 

No I don't know 

Why you're doin this to me 

Standing on the edge 

And watching my life flash by 

Standing on the edge 

She's lookin' right through my eyes 

Love is passin' by 

Right before my eyes 

And I'm wondering why 

What's the reason 

That I'm standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Well she told me 

In the Biblical sense 

And she told me 

In the strictest confidence 

She told me 

We were worlds apart 

She told me, she told me 

I don't know why I'm here 

She said, "Don't be afraid" 

Standing on the edge 

And watching my life flash by 

Standing on the edge 

You're lookin' right through my eyes 

Standing on the edge 

Light flashes before my eyes 

Standing on the edge 

And watchin' my world crash by 

Love is passing by 

Right before my eyes 

And I wonder why 

What's the reason 

That I'm standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

Standing on the edge 

I'm standing on the edge (Repeat and fade)
