Bill Miller - Borderline lyrics

rate me

Ridin' on to El Paso, followin' the rodeo

When she stole my heart under a desert moon

In a bordertown down in Mexico, where all the lonely cowboys go

Stands a mission church at the end of a crowded street

Was there I first caught sight of her alone, my heart began to stir

She was kneeling there at the foot of a painted cross

On the borderline,

Crossing the heartlands again and again

On the borderline,

If lightning would strike me, I'd never know when

My heart must always remain on the borderline

Had to stay another day if only just to find a way to meet that girl who prays by the lonesome grave

They say she lost her only one to a battle of the blazing guns

Now she cries each night and her tears stain the desert sand

She vowed to never give her heart to someone else if they should part

I'll never meet those eyes to tell her I love her so

I'm on the borderline

Crossing the heartlands again and again

On the borderline

If lightning would strike me I'd never know when

My heart must always remain on the borderline
