I was standing on the leading edge - caught the fire below
Ran into the bleeding wedge - it ain't there you know
I couldn't jump
And that's just as well, sweet tiger
Real as it seems, wider than hell, high as the Eiger
Now I'm freaking on the heady hedge - fly the fiery glow
Stumble over every pledge - I'm still here you know
I didn't ever run out on you - but I couldn't run home
And by the time I woke - I woke in Rome
I couldn't jump
And that's just as well, sweet tiger
Real as it seems, wider than hell, high as the Eiger
Chorus:
Lie back, hold tight - let me bring you here tonight
Hold on, all's well - baby I'm sure that I'll see you in hell
Hold on, well's well - baby I'll wait 'til we meet up in hell
If the people I meet are ever discrete
You won't know what hit you
When the heavenly fleet comes sailing to land
Baby I'll be there to take your sweet hand
I couldn't jump
And that's just as well, sweet tiger
Real as it seems, wider than hell, high as the Eiger
Chorus:
Lie back, hold tight - let me bring you here tonight
Hold on, all's well - baby I'm sure that I'll see you in hell
Hold on, well's well - baby I'll wait 'til we meet up in hell
I couldn't jump - just as well
Bridge
Chorus:
Lie back, hold tight - let me bring you here tonight
Hold on, all's well - baby I'm sure that I'll see you in hell
Hold on, well's well - baby I'll wait 'til we meet up in hell
I couldn't jump - just as well |
