Allan Taylor Across The Borderline (feat. Barnaby Taylor, Maartin Allcock, Mike Silver & Dave Townsend)
There's a land so I've been told
Where 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 will lose more than you'll ever hope to find
When you reach the broken promise land
Every dream slips through your hand
And you'll know it's too late to change your mind
'Cause you paid 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
Reveal the secret no one can define
The river rolls on like a breath
In between our life and death
Tell me who's the next to cross the borderline
When you reach the broken promise land
Every dream slips through your hand
And you'll know it's too late to change your mind
'Cause you paid the price to come this far
Just to wind up where you are
And you're still just across the borderline
And you're still just across the borderline
