The Edge - Chico Debarge, Jean-Marie Horvat

Ooh

Ooh

The edge (the edge)

Oh, oh, whoa, oh

You can’t hide what you feel inside (uh)

I’m your wall in this empty room

Question why am I in this for

Right or wrong

I run your race, but by your rules

I take a chance a run a lap so I can lose

You change the game

And make it do just what you want it to

And when you don’t, it’s never through (ohh, oh, oh)

Ooh

I’m in it cause I wanna win (ooh)

I’m playing you for keeps (ooh)

I’m trying to give you what you want (ooh)

If you let me, baby (ooh)

I know you wanna run free (ooh)

But girl, I need you close to me (ooh)

I’m trying to play it by your rules (ooh)

Win or lose;

play it cool

Beh, deh, deeeh (beh, deh, deeeh)

Ba, daaa, da

Do, do, do, dooo (do, do, dooo)

In one day, I knew I loved you

There’s no way to compromise (hm)

If you say you’ll be my side

I’ll do whatever turns you on, babe

To keep you satisfied

Baby, I can barely sleep (?)

I hope and pray that so that God will get us by

Beneath my feet is sinking sand

And I don’t wanna lose

So to survive

I get high

Ooh

I’m in it cause I wanna win (ooh)

I’m playing you for keeps (ooh)

I’m trying to give you what you want (ooh)

If you let me, baby (ooh)

I know you wanna run free (ooh)

But girl, I need you close to me (ooh)

I’m trying to do it by the rules (ooh)

Win or lose;

play it cool
