Lyrics

Borderline

Run out of money and runnin' out of luck

Run into problem I never, never thought of

It seems like I didn't run out of my dreams

But we've got each other and tonight we're gonna leave

To the borderline

Leave all our troubles behind

At the borderline

Forget all our troubles tonight

A broken promise is a broken dream

We've all had so many, too many for me

Impossible to have freedom when things aren't free

But we've got each other and tonight we're gonna leave

To the borderline

Leave all our troubles behind

At the borderline

Forget all our troubles and hide

To the borderline

Leave our troubles tonight

At the borderline

Forget all our troubles

Leavin' all our troubles

At the borderline

I wanna go, I wanna go

Oh I'll go anywhere

I wanna go, I wanna go away from here

Is all I really care

Runnin' away from the girl of my dreams

Runnin' away from a life of broken dreams

To the borderline

Leavin' all our troubles behind

At the borderline

Forget all our troubles tonight

To the borderline

Leave all our troubles behind

At the borderline

Forget all our troubles

Leavin' all our troubles

At the borderline

At the borderline
