Lyrics:
[I The Solid Time Of Change]
A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace
And achieve it all with music that came quickly from afar
And taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour
And assessing points to nowhere, leading every single one
A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun
And take away the plain in which we move
And choose the course you're running
Down at the end, round by the corner
Not right away, not right away
Close to the edge, down by a river
Not right away, not right away
Crossed the line around the changes of the summer
Reaching out to call the color of the sky
Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see
Getting over all the time I had to worry
Leaving all the changes far from far behind
We relieve the tension only to find out the master's name
Down at the end, round by the corner
Close to the edge, just by a river
Seasons will pass you by
I get up, I get down
Now that it's all over and done
Now that you find, now that you're whole
[II Total Mass Retain]
My eyes convinced, eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love
It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above
I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand
There's you, the time, the logic, or the reasons we don't understand
Sad courage claimed the victims standing still for all to see
As armoured movers took approached to overlook the sea
There since the cord, the license, or the reasons we understood will be
Down at the edge, close by a river
Close to the edge, round by the corner
Close to the end, down by the corner
Down at the edge, round by the river
Sudden cause shouldn't take away the startled memory
All in all, the journey takes you all the way
As apart from any reality that you've ever seen and known
Guessing problems only to deceive the mention
Passing paths that climb halfway into the void
As we cross from side to side, we hear the total mass retain
Down at the edge, round by the corner
Close to the end, down by a river
Seasons will pass you by
I get up, I get down
[III I Get Up, I Get Down]
In her white lace, you could clearly see the lady sadly looking
Saying that she'd take the blame
For the crucifixion of her own domain
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
Two million people barely satisfy
Two hundred women watch one woman cry, too late
The eyes of honesty can achieve
(She would gladly say it amazement of her story)
How many millions do we deceive each day?
(Asking only interest could be layed upon the children of her domain)
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
In charge of who is there in charge of me
(She could clearly see the lady sadly looking)
Do I look on blindly and say I see the way?
(Saying that she'd take the blame
For the crucifixion of her own domain)
The truth is written all along the page
(She would gladly say it amazement of her story)
How old will I be before I come of age for you?
(Asking only interest could be layed upon the children of her domain)
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
[IV Seasons Of Man]
The time between the notes relates the color to the scenes
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, so it seems
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love
As song and chance develop time, lost social temp'rance rules above
Ah, ah
Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space
He turned around and pointed, revealing all the human race
I shook my head and smiled a whisper, knowing all about the place
On the hill we viewed the silence of the valley
Called to witness cycles only of the past
And we reach all this with movements in between the said remark
Close to the edge, down by the river
Down at the end, round by the corner
Seasons will pass you by
Now that it's all over and done
Called to the seed, right to the sun
Now that you find, now that you're whole
Seasons will pass you by
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down
I get up, I get down

The first time I heard this I was 10 years old. I woke up to the sound of birds inside my ears. My older brother put his headphones on me and played this. Even though I was so young, there is no doubt that it was a profound life-changing event. It changed the way I perceived music. It taught me to listen. It opened my mind to explore more mind bending music. 34 years later and I still think this is the greatest piece of music i have ever heard (along with King Crimson's "Starless"). This is more than music.

I've asked my kids to force my relatives to listen to it at my wake! :) LOL

Yes, brother. I was eleven when I heard it, and have never been the same. I still listen, watching for nuances I did not notice. This album has no peers in power, grace, emotion and musical genius. Still adore every era of King Crimson, (RIP Greg and John) but early Yes filled my young life with depth and infinite beauty. Still does.

Having read everyone's comments, I have little to add. I was born in 1956, and by the time this came out, I'd given up the kiddie chemistry sets and was using my brain as the laboratory. I don't even remember where I was or what I was doing when I first heard it. But I ended up seeing Yes 11 times in concert. and no band has ever affected me as deeply.

When CDs finally arrived, you guessed it, this was the first one I spent money on. It's a perfect, flawless album of music, worthy of Mozart or Beethoven.

I was born in 1963 and in the early 70's I can remember vividly going into our living room as my dad sat in the floor listening to this on several occasions. We had WIDE variety of music in our house in those days. I still have that same original vinyl album. I've been a yes fan for a long time, but it's really interesting the emotional impact this has on me today. It's so good now it honestly hurts to an extent to listen to it. It can bring a tear of joy, and really don't understand if it's because I've come to appreciate the mastery of the music that much more, or if it's because it brings back such a flood of memories of the times I can relate to having listened to this song. Regardless, the music of Yes has been woven into the fabric of my life over time. A lot of other music as well, but for whatever reason, Yes music seems to normally bring back the happiest of memories. Cheers to all fellow Yes fans. I hope you can understand.

I was 14, and a friend said "listen to this" and placed the headphones on me while I laid on a bed with my eyes closed. I was forever changed in a way I can't completely describe to anyone..The music and lyrics swept me to a transcendence that was so powerful that I wept. "Now that you find, now that you're whole. Seasons will pass you by. I get up, I get down" Epic!

I wonder if this truly ends up being the pinnacle of musical creativity, and the magnum opus of musical grandeur. Nothing comes close to this piece; so long yet so short, so lush yet so empty, and so verdant yet so dark. It is based on Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha, yet the concept is loose and malleable so that it can stand alongside the rest of Yes's corresponding discography. It embodies an entire genre, is beloved by its fans, and garnered both critical and commercial acclaim upon its release. I believe this is it. Just like in Shelley's Ozymandias, this piece of music is what humanity should be remembered by; it is arguably the greatest example of musicianship, at least in the rock genre. Yet it does not strike me as rock music, but something more. Excellent.

"Close to the Edge" came out in 1972. During their tour that fall they appeared at Huntington Memorial Field House in Huntington, WV. As fate would have it I was asked to be an usher for that concert by my frat brothers from Zeta Beta Tau. And so my fascination with the ultimate progressive impressionist rock band the world would and will ever know began. Up to that time the Yes album was all I had ever heard. To this day I can still see the in the stage floor keyboards rolling via Wakeman's commands!!

Love the imaging to go with it. I'm used to hearing this with my eyes closed, and get all sorts of images that way, but this is nice eye candy for a change :)

In a town far, far away many decades ago I heard this for the first time. The ghosts of those years still haunt me but the music has always shone a light into the darkness.

Maravilhoso vinil dos Yes. Quando vivia em Angola nos anos 70 era a música que levava para o Mussulo.

Close to the Edge was recorded in sections as the band toured the UK at the time, they had to constantly tear down to do a show and reset the next day. Eddie Offord sliced the sections together as the final arrangement was decided. Surprisingly, the bed tracks (drums, bass, guitar, some keys, etc.) were recorded live and there is a little leakage, so punch ins were problematic. Vocals, acoustic guitar, piano and Minimoog were overdubbed. Very impressive end product given the circumstances.

I first heard YES in 1969 Your move from that point I was aYES fan there sound is so unique that I still lose my breath listening to them .Jon s voice is an instrument upon it self. I have seen them in concert about 21 times and I still remember the first time I saw them at MSG when the dome Rick was in exploded and Jon started this chanting OMG what great music

Carlos Santos Yes são os músicos com a maior ambição possível, na minha opinião os caras chegaram ao ápice da música, sozinhos... Gates of delirium, CTTE, Dance of the dawn, siberian khatru, AYAI, Sound chaser, Awaken, Turn of the century, hearth of the sunrise, roundabout, to be over, Remembering... é tanta peça que eu fico bugado.

I can never get enough of this song. I couldn't imagine the effort going into it, I mean imagine recording this, and playing a wrong chord 1 minute from the end, and then having to start over again.

Close TO The Edge in my opinion, is the best record ever produced on Pushamama or Gaia. The Wakeman organ pinnacle is awe-inspiring. This album has everything anyone needs to know on it from the beginning to the end & back again! 1 album to choose for eternity & this is it. Easily done the time of this is eternal. This promotes religious experiences as it was designed to. 1>3

This is 5 guys in their 20s! The music, and musicians of my era. I'm 70 and have seen these guys perform this live at Roosevelt Stadium about 4 months after the Album hit the record stores, then again 20 years ago at the Hollywood Bowl. 40 years apart, and it sounded as fresh as it had 40 years earlier!

Been a devotee since 1973 when they played in St. Petersburg, FL I'd heard this song previously, found the singing lovely, but the music was too complex - seemed random improved. THEN, I watched them do it! I couldn't believe such musicianship was possible!!! Have not altered in my estimation of them since! Nous sommes du soleil! Peace
