Across the Borderline

There's a land where 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 here's a lesson that you must learn

You could lose more than you'll ever find

When you reach the broken promiseland every dream slips through your hand

You'll know it's too late to change your mind

'Cause you paid the price to come so far just to wind up where you are

And you're still just across the borderlineUp and down the Rio Grande a thousand footprints in the sand

Reveal the secret no one can define

The river flows on like a breath in between our life and death

Who's the next to cross the borderlineHope remains when pride is gone and it keeps you moving on

Calling you across the borderline

When you reach the broken promiseland...

And you're still just across the borderline
