The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm not asking for much

But I need a little time to find

What it is I want

And is it you this time

I wish that I knew you better

I wish that I knew know myself

I want it to be forever

But now it's still only me

Chorus:

Standing on the edge of the world

And I don't want you to catch me

I want you to let me

Stand up here and walk on my own

I can't learn to love you

If you're all I know

I saw you waiting there

Across the parking lot

October never felt so cold

You were looking for

All the things you know I'm not

And believe me I've tried

I've tried, I've tried, oh

I thought that I knew you better

Than I knew myself

Chorus:

Standing on the edge of the world

And I don't want you to catch me

I want you to let me

Stand up here and walk on my own

I can't learn to love you

If you're all I know

Bridge:

Uh-oh, uh-oh

Don't let it change your mind

Uh-oh, uh-oh

On and on and on and on....

Chorus:

Standing on the edge of the world

Now I don't want you to catch me

I want you to let me

Stand up here and walk on my own

I can't learn to love you

I can't learn to love you, whoa-oh

I can't learn to love you

If you're all I know, whoa, oooh
