Well I've been out here on the ledge now
For so many years that I've lost how
The nights go by sitting in this car
Well I've tried to leave but I don't get far
I'm standing here on the edge now
The dark goes in and the light goes out
You know you were so cruel
All the things you put me through
But I only need just one chance
Yes I only need just one chance
Then I'll be over you
I'll be over you
Well I've been out here on the ledge now
For so many years that I don't know how
You lose the ones you love the most
And left out here just on your own
And you only get just one chance
Well I only need the one chance
Then I'll be over you
Oh I'll be over you
