Across the Borderline (feat. Jackson Browne)

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 When you reach the broken promised land Every dream slips through your hands Then you'll know 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 Up and down the Rio Grande A thousand footprints in the sand Reveal a secret no one can define (Cuando hay 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 En la triste oscuridad Hoy tenemos que cruzar Este río que nos llama más allá But hope remains when pride is gone And it keeps you moving on Calling you across the borderline And when you reach the broken promised land Every dream slips through your hands Then you'll know, Then you'll know 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 Now you're still just across the borderline
