Edge of the World

I went to the edge of the world today
To see what I could see
The view was nice, the sky was wide
And time stood still it seemed

I went to the edge of the world today
To make myself be heard
The wind was but a whisper
But it took away the words

I went to the edge of the world today
To listen for a voice
The only sound was silence
And so I made a choice

I went to the edge of the world today
And this is what I saw
The view from there compared to here
Is not so different after all

I went to the edge of the world today
To see what I would find
I didn't take away as much
As what I left behind

I went to the edge of the world today
And said goodbye to him
And as I walked away I knew
The world would turn again

I went to the edge of the world today
And left reluctantly
But I'll go back until I find
A world that's made for me
