Edge of My Seat Lyrics

Nothing more
That there's nothing more
Nothing more
That there's nothing more

Nothing here's the same, it's all a dream
Life on the movie screen
And I'm sitting on the edge of my seat

I can't tell what happens next,
Just what I've seen
I don't know what it means
But I'm holding on the edge of my seat

[Chorus:]
'Cause I can't forget your name,
Forget your name
Yeah I can't forget you now
I know I can't forget you, girl

I promise
Sit back buckle in and hold on tight
A roller coaster ride
And I'm holding on the edge of my seat

And I can't know for sure
'Cause I just landed on your shore
But I think you got nothing but another thing coming
If you think there's nothing more
That there's nothing more

Chorus [x3]

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"Love can do crazy things. Love spins our head, and suddenly the world is fresh and exciting: ?life on the movie screen.' I'm so glad God created us with the capability for friendship with Him and others. I'm thankful for all the incredible components of life-like sunsets, a smile, falling in love. I wrote this song when the world around me was bigger than life and I was excited to see what happened next. I was sitting on the Edge of My Seat." -Jon Foreman

Nobody?

Well, I think it's about somebody who really likes a girl, and can't forget about them...
