On The Verge Of Something Wonderful Lyrics
A serpent, a rabbit
A walk in the forest
A tentative looking sun
A feeling, a moment
A bursting of bubbles
A panic to overcome
A samurai, an angel
An elegant table
An AC that does not work
A road trip, a car wreck
A paperback novel
A lover who ain't been hurt
When you let me go
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey
On the verge of, on the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence, on the edge of something wonderful
For it, against it
Said he'd never meant it
But Harry still dropped the bomb
A trip to the dentist
The Hollywood black list
A moment that time forgot
When you let me go
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey
On the verge of, on the verge of something wonderful
At the edge of, on the verge of something wonderful
You can dance in the devil's shoes if you like walking in heels
And there's a decent living to be made in the selling out of ideals
You can lose your way in the big city
Get distracted and lost and feel pretty
I want you, I need you
I don't wanna please you or belong to anyone
But life is for leading, for not people pleasing
A race that has never been won
When you let me go
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey
On the verge of, on the verge of something wonderful
At the edge of, on the verge of something wonderful
On the verge of, on the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence, on the edge of something wonderful
A walk in the forest
A tentative looking sun
A feeling, a moment
A bursting of bubbles
A panic to overcome
An elegant table
An AC that does not work
A road trip, a car wreck
A paperback novel
A lover who ain't been hurt
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey
Said he'd never meant it
But Harry still dropped the bomb
The Hollywood black list
A moment that time forgot
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey
And there's a decent living to be made in the selling out of ideals
Get distracted and lost and feel pretty
I don't wanna please you or belong to anyone
But life is for leading, for not people pleasing
A race that has never been won
When I'm on my way
When the world below is cold and grey

i love this song. to me, it's all about the rawness of life, the spontaneity of it, but also the beauty of it. In an age where everyone is talking about global warming, when everyone is blaming themselves for destroying this world, it's refreshing to have an optimistic song assuring us that things will be alright and wonderful :)
@x_hotelpaper Yes, I fell in love with this song back in 2007 - when it was first launched by Hayes - & I hadn't listened to it for awhile before today, so I thought I'd look for other people's interpretations of it...& I very much agree with yours! I could go into more about how it made me feel & believe in my future at the time - & then what happened to me the following year - but then it would become a rather verbose 'novel' of a message!! xo

This song is good for New Year's Eve parties, in that we've just been through another year, now we're on the verge of something wonderful - a new year.
