Across the Borderline

[Verse 1: Gaby Moreno] There's a place where I've been told Every street is paved with gold And it's just across the borderline And when it's time to take your turn Here's a lesson that you must learn You could lose more than you'll ever hope to find [Chorus: Gaby Moreno] When you reach the broken promised land And every dream slips through your hands Then 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 [Verse 2: Jackson Browne, Gaby Moreno] Up and down the Rio Grande A thousand footprints in the sand Reveal a secret no one can define (Como aire el río fluye) The river flows on like a breath In between our life and death Tell me who'll be next to cross the borderline [Verse 3: Gaby Moreno & Jackson Browne] En la triste oscuridad Hoy tenemos que cruzar Este rí­o que nos llama mas allá But hope remains when pride is gone And it keeps you moving on Calling you across the borderline [Chorus: Gaby Moreno] When you reach the broken promised land Every dream slips through your hands And you'll know it's too late to change your mind 'Cause you pay the price to come so far Just to wind up where you are And you're still just across the borderline Now you're still just across the borderline And you're still just across the borderline
