Borderline - Chris De Burgh
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
