An obvious tribute to Robbie’s wife, Ayda, “The Edge” references the rough road he had before he met her – the disbelief in love, the depression he stood at the edge of, and the many women he slept with and dated in the hopes of finding the one and not succeeding.

[Verse 1]
I used to wander to the edge and look down
I used to pile up promises then leave town
You should have heard my best excuses
So profound and so untrue

But now I wake up next to you
[Chorus]
And the nights are still as long as they ever were
All the things that could go wrong, well they still occur
But when the violent sun breaks the morning air
It will find me there, next to you
[Verse 3]
I had to lose myself for years to find this
Mistook the cruelty and abuse for kindness
Didn't know yet what to keep zipped shut
My own blindness stole the view
But now I wake up next to you
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Where did it all go right?
When did it all go right?
When did it all go right?
Where did it all go right?
[Verse 1]
[Bridge]
I'll always walk back from the edge
Find a way to you
I'll always walk back from the edge
Find a way to get to you
I'll always walk back from the edge
Find a way to you
I'll always walk back from the edge
Find a way to get to you
