On The Edge Of A Cliff-The Streets

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Skinner [00:10.00]@ @ [00:14.00] [00:16.59]I'm really OK thanks, there's nothing to witness [00:20.47]I said as I looked back from the edge of the cliff [00:23.65]The old man looking down leant over the ridge [00:26.86]Stood with a grin as if a blessing had hit him [00:30.09]I slumped on the jut of the cliff [00:33.36]Just leave me alone, this is none of your business [00:36.46]I will said the old man, but just one thing [00:39.49]And what he said was so lovely it stunned me [00:42.96]He said I lay right there once at the edge of the rock [00:46.15]I was ready to jump, I was ever so lost [00:49.28]But this gentleman stopped and said something I never forgot [00:55.59]For billions of years since the outset of time [00:59.14]Every single one of your ancestors survived [01:02.05]Every single person on your mum and dad's sides [01:05.22]successfully looked after and passed onto you life [01:08.54]What are the chances of that, like? [01:11.54]It comes to me once in a while [01:14.56]And everywhere I tell folk it gets the best of smile [01:24.39]And then the old man walked away and out of sight [01:27.43]Till the sound of him hiking turned to the sound of silence [01:30.66]I just froze at the profound surprise [01:34.12]and from down at my pride I found a smile to my eyes [01:37.33]And for many days again I've been passing the same cliff [01:40.66]and on many occasions I'd chance on the same thing [01:43.35]Laying in the moss, in the same way I was [01:46.84]would be another man looking like he needed a change of luck [01:49.88]So I'd say I lay right there once at the edge of the rock [01:53.39]I was ready to jump, I was ever so lost [01:56.90]But this gentleman stopped and said something I never forgot [02:02.60]For billions of years since the outset of time [02:06.18]Every single one of your ancestors survived [02:09.30]Every single person on your mum and dad's sides [02:12.57]successfully looked after and passed onto you life [02:15.79]What are the chances of that, like? [02:18.87]It comes to me once in a while [02:21.94]And everywhere I tell folk it gets the best of smile [02:27.87]For billions of years since the outset of time [02:31.76]Every single one of your ancestors survived [02:34.75]Every single person on your mum and dad's sides [02:37.92]successfully looked after and passed onto you life [02:41.32]What are the chances of that, like? [02:44.37]It comes to me once in a while [02:47.51]And everywhere I tell folk it gets the best of smile [02:53.37]
