“The Edge Of Glory” is a promotional single from American pop singer-songwriter Lady Gaga‘s second full-length studio album, Born This Way.
Written and produced by Gaga, Fernando Garibay, Paul Blair, and DJ White Shadow, “The Edge of Glory” was first released digitally as the first promotional single proceeding the album’s release.
The track has been confirmed as the third single from the studio album.
The track was produced by DJ White Shadow and premiered in early-mid May 2011.

Lyrics for Lady Gaga – The Edge Of Glory
[Verse 1]
There ain’t a reason you and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah baby (2x)
I got a reason that you-hoo should take me home tonight
I need a man that thinks it’s right when it’s so wrong,
Tonight yeah baby (2x)
Right on the limits where we know we both belong tonight[Pre-Chorus]
It’s time to feel the rush,
To push the dangerous
I’m gonna run back to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall o’er 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 (6x)
I’m on the edge of glory
And I’m hanging on a moment with you
I’m on the edge with you[Verse 2]
Another shot, before we kiss the other side,
Tonight, yeah baby (2x)
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 (2x)
It isn’t Hell if everybody knows my name
Tonight, alright, alright[Pre-Chorus]
It’s time to feel the rush
To push the dangerous
I’m gonna run back to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall o’er 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 (6x)
I’m on the edge of glory
And I’m hanging on a moment with you
I’m on the edge with youI’m on the edge with you
I’m on the edge with you
I’m on the edge of glory,
And I’m hanging on a moment of truth,
I’m on the edge of glory,
And I’m hanging on a moment with you,
I’m on the edge
The edge (6x)
I’m on the edge of glory
And I’m hanging on a moment with you
I’m on the edge with you
With you (4x)
I’m on the edge with you
With you (4x)
I’m on the edge with you
With you (4x)
I’m on the edge with you
With you (4x)
