It's her word against his; one of them is lying and I have a feeling who it is

Maybe read the whole section first
It doesn't say anything about how long it took to write

With “Edge Of Glory” we were both going through something sad at the same time. My grandpa died. I took a leave. I was touring with her for about three years on and off, working on music and just writing with her. My grandfather passed away, who was a big, big influence in my life. He passed away a month prior to writing this song.
I left tour to go bury my grandfather in Mexico, and when I came back, unfortunately the same thing happened to her. She had a conversation with her grandfather who passed away and I don’t want to paraphrase her, but it ended up being incorporated into the lyrics — standing on the edge of glory, being at the edge of your life and being triumphant. “I did it my way.” You know what I mean? For my part, it was an ode to my grandfather, and for her it was an ode to her grandfather.
