Across the Borderline

There's a place where I've been told
 Every street is paved with gold
 And it's just across the borderline
 When it's time to take your turn
 Here's a lesson that you must learn
 You could lose more than you'll ever find
 When you reach the broken promise land
 When every dream slips through your hand
 You'll know it's too late to change your mind
 'Cause you paid the price to come so 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 all the secret no one can define
 The river flows on like a breath
 In between our life and death
 Who's the next to cross the borderline
 ♪
 Hope remains when pride is gone
 And it keeps you moving on
 Calling you across the borderline
 When you reach the broken promise land
 Every dream slips through your hand
 You'll know that it's too late to change your mind
 'Cause you've paid the price to come so far
 Just to wind up where you are
 And you're still just across the borderline
 And you're still just across the borderline
