The lady was in waiting[00:00:02]

For whatever story might unfold[00:00:48]

Anticipating that somehow base metal would turn into gold[00:00:54]

Yeh she was always looking for a brighter spot[00:01:01]

Eager to tap into the motherlode[00:01:06]

At the edge of the road[00:01:11]

A world of separation[00:01:31]

Treasuring each pleasure and each pain[00:01:36]

Distance is arching between them[00:01:41]

A rainbow no gold in the frame[00:01:45]

Until the boy with a smile like forget me nots[00:01:50]

Will finally come in from the rain[00:01:54]

But he's out there still：[00:01:58]

In the hourglass a sandstorm has stripped his sails[00:02:03]

Only wanting to fill up his pockets[00:02:08]

With the dust of all the bygone trails[00:02:14]

Someday he'll make his way home[00:02:19]

But will the man of the moment finally make himself known[00:02:28]

And lay down his load[00:02:38]

At the edge of the road[00:02:46]

The woman was in waiting[00:03:36]

Less in expectation than in hope[00:03:41]

Maybe he'd come to his senses in a little while[00:03:44]

If she just paid out plaits of flaxen rope[00:03:49]

But he never will[00:03:53]

In his heart there's the murmur of an alien disease[00:03:58]

Waking up to the chill of the knowledge[00:04:03]

That his travel's brought him to his knees[00:04:09]

Nowhere is safe from all harm[00:04:14]

So will the man of her memory fall finally into her arms[00:04:21]

Will the man of her memory be charmed[00:04:30]

Before he explodes[00:04:33]

At the edge of the road[00:04:40]

All is suddenly abandon[00:07:07]

All his planned accommodation failed[00:07:12]

All his actions and reactions are random[00:07:17]

Hot on the scent of a stone cold trail[00:07:21]

And though she burns a candle to his memory[00:07:25]

All of her patience was bound to fail[00:07:30]

For he's out there still[00:07:34]

With a thousand mile stare falling on his face[00:07:39]

Chasing after a thrill[00:07:44]

That'll take him out beyond all sense of time and place[00:07:49]

Head on into the unknown[00:07:55]

Here's the man chasing mystery finally missing his own[00:08:04]

But that's how it goes[00:08:14]

At the edge of the road[00:08:21]

There's a cutting edge to the road[00:08:31]

At the end of the road[00:08:42]

At the edge of the road[00:08:52]
