The Edge Of Heartbreak

Sometimes when I'm on my own My bed too cold for one alone I try to lose myself in dreams But you're not here so I can't sleep I suffer when the night is long My heart cries out for yours is gone You take me to the edge of heartbreak Then I turn and there you are Sometimes near and yet so far You touch my hair, you pull me close We're cheek to cheek and nose to nose Your velvet eyes so dark and deep You're like an angel when you sleep You take me to the edge of heartbreak Maybe tears are in my eyes But I'm not feeling sad Emotions that you make me feel A love so beautiful and real You've had the hurt, you've had the pain I pray you don't feel those again It's somewhere deep within your mind Another place, another time And now I have an ache for you How long it takes, I'll wait for you You take me to the edge of heartbreak And in those early hours I'm missing you My lips are dead when I'm not kissing you And in the morning light I'm wanting you And by the sunrise I'll belong to you I hope I will Soon your eyes will open then This aching heart will beat again You are the warmth you are the light With you I'll never fear the night Love is fragile I find Sleep on sweetly, love of mine You take me to the edge of heartbreak --- The Edge of Heartbreak - Marc Almond
