The lyrics talk about realizing that the Earth is not round -
- Once you 'rise above the clouds'...Truly amazing!
"Its amazing what you do believe, Until you rise above your world."
We are now able to 'fly above' on our own with private weather balloon and rocket launches, as seen in the photo above.
Standing At The Edge Of The World
(Paddy Milner and the Big Sounds)
Standing at the edge of the world,
Looking right over the edge.
Always thought the world was round
But I guess I've never seen for myself.
Its amazing what we take granted,
Till you're at the edge of your world.
Flying up above the white clouds,...
Flapping my arms like a bird.
Always thought that you couldn't fly,
But now I know it isn't true.
Its amazing what you do believe,
Until you rise above your world.
Why, why do we always ask the same old questions?
It only leads to the same old lies.
Too many times do I eat from the hand that feeds me.
Easy to forget the rest.
Standing at the edge of the world,
Looking right over the edge.
A billion souls sailing through the black
Free and easy, saying hello.
Its amazing what we do forget,
Till you're at the edge of your world.
Flying up above the white clouds,
Flapping my arms like a bird.
Always thought that you couldn't fly,
But now I know it isn't true.
Its amazing what you do believe,
Until you rise...
