On The Verge (Live) Lyrics
Collin Raye
Lyrics
Well, they shouldn't
Have played that good
I got carried away
And let the music go to my head
Well, she shouldn't
Have worn that dress
The way it curled around
When she was spinning
Just killed me dead
My heart began to tell
My body and my soul
That it had gotten in the mood
To lose control
Oh no, when did neon light
Turn into moon glow
When did that jukebox
Turn to a rainbow
I'm about to give
Into this urge
One more slow dance
With her arms around me
One more long glance
And nothing will slow down me
I got no chance
If I'm not in love I'm on the verge
All I wanted to be was cool
It ain't my style to overheat
Much less burn
But as we floated
Across the floor
All at once I flashed
Right past the point, of no return
And when we said goodnight
The sun was on the rise
And any stars that hadn't set
Had fallen in my eyes
Oh no, when did neon light
Turn into moon glow
When did that jukebox
Turn to a rainbow
I'm about to give
Ito this urge
One more slow dance
With her arms around me
One more long glance
And nothing will slow down me
I got no chance
If I'm not in love I'm on the verge
One more slow dance
With her arms around me
One more long glance
And nothing will slow down me
I got no chance
If I'm not in love I'm on the verge
If I'm not in love I'm on the verge
