Across The Borderline歌词

作曲 : John Hiatt/Ry Cooder/Jim Dickinson
There's a place that I've been told

Every street is paved with gold

And it's just across the borderline

When it's time to take your turn

There's a lesson you must learn

You can lose more that you ever hope to find

And when you reach the broken promised land

Every dream slips through your hand

Then you'll know that it's too late

To change your mind

Cause you pay the price to come this far

Just to wind up where you are

And you're still just across the borderline

Up and down the Rio Grande

A thousand footprints in the sand

They reveal the secrets no one can define

The river flows on like a breath

In between our life and death

Tell me who's the next to cross the borderline

And when you reach the broken promised land

Every dream slips through your hand

And you'll lose more than you'll ever hope to find

Cause you pay the price to come this far

Just to wind up where you are

And you're still just across the borderline
