Borderline Lyrics by Chris De Burgh

Borderline Lyrics

    I'm standing in the station,
    I am waiting for a train,
    To take me to the border,
    And my loved one far away,
    I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war,
    I could hardly even bear to see them go;

    Rolling through the countryside,
    Tears are in my eyes,
    We're coming to the borderline,
    I'm ready with my lies,
    And in the early morning rain, I see her there,
    And I know I'll have to say goodbye again;

    And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,
    I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,
    I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
    Don't let go, I want to know,
    That you will wait for me until the day,
    There's no borderline, no borderline;

    Walking past the border guards,
    Reaching for her hand,
    Showing no emotion,
    I want to break into a run,
    But these are only boys, and I will never know,
    How men can see the wisdom in a war...

    And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,
    I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,
    I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
    Don't let go, I want to know,
    That you will wait for me until the day,
    There's no borderline, no borderline,
    No borderline, no borderline...
