Borderline Lyrics by Goanna

Spirit of Place

0

[Verse 1]
Lookin' across the bay in the early mornin' light
Chasin' the feelin' washed up by the night
And the rivers run like memories from the mountains to the sea

[Bridge 1]
We were always searchin', runnin' from town to town
Chasin' some endless feelin', an' tryin' to pin it down

[Chorus 1]
I know you're scared of lookin' back
And you're tired of lookin' forward
And yeah, but what are you waiting for?

Woh-hoh
Well, yeah
Come on

[Bridge 2]
And now it's come to cryin', and the hardship, well it shows
You're torn between the letting go, and the fear never knowin'

[Chorus 2]
I know I've promisеd things before
I know I've nеver been that sure
Yeah, but baby there's an open door

Woh-hoh

[Bridge 3]
Starin' across the water, we saw the gates of freedom
Don't care if it's love or madness, gotta' go where the dream is leadin'

[Chorus 3]
I know they'll think we're runnin' scared
There's no point to stand fight
'Cause we're gonna cross that borderline tonight

Hey!
Tonight

[Bridge 1]
And we were always searchin', yeah, runnin' from town to town
Chasin' some endless feelin', an' tryin' to pin it down

[Chorus 1]
I know you're scared of looking back
And you're tired of lookin' forward
Girl, but what are you waiting for?

[Transition]
We've been burnin' in the light of day
So let's throw the book of rules away, yeah
And shape our lives like castles in the sand
And make our stand

[Bridge 4]
Well, there is no master plan, I can't see the Promised Land
Hey, there's only what we do with our hearts and hands

[Chorus 4]
We're gonna take control of this sinkin' ship
And face it to the sun
And we're gonna cross that borderline
(We're gonna cross that borderline)

[Outro]
Yeah
Yeah, and how we're goin' tonight!
Yeah, tonight
We wanna set it right
(Whoa)
Whoa, tonight
