You ever feel you're on the brink,
of something truly great?
You feel success is imminent
like you hardly have to wait?

But then when nothing happens
you start to give up hope
You feel like a climber
running out of rope

And then for no reason at all
the feeling it comes back
But still the dream is unfulfilled
and you don't know what it lacks.

Well that's been me for some time now
teetering on the brink
I'm sure when it comes it will be great
but this waiting sure does stink

So come on fate, show your cards
at least give me a clue
if this "something great" will come to pass
or if there's more I need to do.
