(I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend) I would understand (I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend) I would understand (I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend) And I would understand (I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend) I would understand (I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend) And I would understand |
