ALISON KRAUSS LYRICS - Borderline

"Borderline"



So you're on your own lookin' down the road that goes only by one name

And you don't need the signs to see lonely still runs both ways

So who's the fool that would think the ties would be better off undone

Did your heart heed the warning when you veered from the path that was narrower and straight



On the borderline

Somewhere between the flight for freedom

Feeling like you can't move on

The chore will be the time

Takes you off of my mind and out of my heart I know

And when you cross over there's no turning back

Once that burning bridge is gone



I may lose but I'm in it for the long run

Loving you for good reason could be the wrong one

I don't wanna lose control but the heart won't learn

To let it well enough alone



On the borderline

Somewhere between the flight for freedom

Feeling like you can't move on

The chore will be the time

Takes you off of my mind and out of my heart I know

And when you cross over there's no turning back

Once that burning bridge is gone



So you're on your own lookin' down the road that goes only by one name
