Jessica Sevier - Edge of the Night Lyrics

I can hear the creak of my mother's stairs
As I slipped out into the night
We met on the street where we used to run
And made our plan that seemed so right
There was no turning back as the city limits pass
My heart in your hands as you stepped on the gas
A rumble in the silence, no more fears
Momma I am sorry, hold back the tears
Out of the darkness and into the light
Across the cold river and out of sight
This is my life on the edge of the night
You and your buddies hanging on the street
Just like old times that are no longer mine
It has been years but I will write a letter home
Don't know what to say, don't know what to sign
Too many nights sleeping on the floor
The baby cries, I can only look for the door
Out of the darkness and into the light
Across the cold river and out of sight
This is my life on the edge of the night
We never knew what we did not know
We were just kids, revved up and ready to go
So, I chased my dreams, I jumped in that car
Years ago, I was so bold
But now I miss my mother's touch
I'll pack up my girl, pack up my things
And release me from my young wedding ring
When you live on the edge of a knife
The pain is going to be real
So tonight when you dance in the street
You better learn how to feel
Out of the darkness and into the light
Across the cold river and out of sight
This is my life on the edge of the night
Out of the darkness and into the light
Across the cold river and out of sight
This is my life on the edge of the night
