On The Edge Of A Cliff - The Streets[00:00:02]

I'm really ok thanks there's nothing to witness[00:00:19]

I said as I looked back from the edge of the cliff[00:00:22]

The old man looking down leant over the ridge[00:00:26]

Stood with a grin as if a blessing had hit him[00:00:29]

I slumped on the jut of the cliff[00:00:32]

Just leave me alone this is none of your business[00:00:35]

I will said the old man but just one thing[00:00:38]

And what he said was so lovely it stunned me[00:00:41]

He said[00:00:44]

I lay right there once at the edge of the rock[00:00:45]

I was ready to jump I was ever so lost[00:00:48]

But this gentleman stopped[00:00:52]

And said something I never forgot[00:00:53]

For billions of years since the outset of time[00:00:57]

Every single one of your ancestors survived[00:01:01]

Every single person on your mum and dad's sides[00:01:04]

Successfully looked after and passed onto you life[00:01:07]

What are the chances of that like[00:01:10]

It comes to me once in a while[00:01:13]

And everywhere[00:01:17]

I tell folk it gets the best of smile[00:01:17]

And then the old man[00:01:26]

Walked away and out of sight[00:01:27]

Till the sound of him hiking[00:01:29]

Turned to the sound of silence[00:01:31]

I just froze at the profound surprise[00:01:34]

And from down at my pride[00:01:35]

I found a smile to my eyes[00:01:37]

And for many days again[00:01:40]

I've been passing the same cliff[00:01:41]

And on many occasions[00:01:42]

I'd chance on the same thing[00:01:43]

Laying in the moss in the same way I was[00:01:46]

Would be another man looking like[00:01:49]

He needed a change of luck[00:01:50]

So I'd say I lay right there[00:01:52]

Once at the edge of the rock[00:01:53]

I was ready to jump I was ever so lost[00:01:55]

But this gentleman stopped[00:01:59]

And said something[00:02:00]

I never forgot[00:02:01]

For billions of years since the outset of time[00:02:05]

Every single one of your ancestors survived[00:02:08]

Every single person on your mum and dad's sides[00:02:11]

Successfully looked after and passed onto you life[00:02:14]

What are the chances of that like[00:02:18]

It comes to me once in a while[00:02:21]

And everywhere[00:02:24]

I tell folk it gets the best of smile[00:02:24]

For billions of years since the outset of time[00:02:30]

Every single one of your ancestors survived[00:02:34]

Every single person on your mum and dad's sides[00:02:37]

Successfully looked after and passed onto you life[00:02:40]

What are the chances of that like[00:02:43]

It comes to me once in a while[00:02:46]

And everywhere[00:02:50]

I tell folk it gets the best of smile[00:02:50]
