The Edge Of Glory - Lady Gaga

There ain't no reason
You and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
I got a reason that you're
Who should take me home tonight

I need a man that thinks
It's right when it's so wrong
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
Right on the limits
Where we know we both belong tonight

It's hot to feel the rush
To brush the dangerous
I'm gonna run right to
To the edge with you
Where we can both fall far in love

CHORUS
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge
The edge, the edge, the edge, the edge
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you

Another shot before
We kiss the other side
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
I'm on the edge of something final
We call life tonight
(Alright, alright)

Put on your shades
Cause I'll be dancing in the flames
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
It isn't hell if everyone knows my name
Tonight
(Alright, alright)

It's hot to feel the rush
To brush the dangerous
I'm gonna run right to
To the edge with you
Where we can both fall far in love

CHORUS (2x)

(2x)
I'm on the edge with you
(With you, with you, with you, with you)

The story of the song
The song is opened with the statement showing singer's reluctance of being separated or left behind by her boy (of course, here there is no sign that the boy is her legitimate spouse. So just say that the boy is her boyfriend). She says that there is no reason for her boyfriend to leave her alone that night. Instead, she got a reason to follow him to his place. She thinks that it is only by doing this that they prove to belong together.

In the next verse, she admits that it's not easy to feel the desire, to do something which she seems to know it is not right. However, she still wants to do that not right things. So, she decides that before doing what she wants to do, she wants to make sure that it's all is done based on love.

Therefore, in the next verse she says "I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment of truth" which is likely to mean that she is no longer patient in resisting her desire, however she still waits to see the truth whether what they are going to do is based on love or not.

  1. On an interview with Operah Lady Gaga admits that this song was inspired by her grandfather's death in late 2010. The song's meaning has to do with spending your last moments on the edge, with the people you love. Being on the edge of glory.
