Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time with something

How was I to know?

How was I to know? This high came rushing

[Chorus]

We're on the borderline

Dangerously fine and unforgiving

Possibly a sign

I'm gonna have the strangest night on Sunday

[Verse 2]

Here I go

Quite a show for a loner in LA

I wonder how I managed to end up in this place

Where I couldn't get away

[Chorus]

We're on the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time

Watched it speeding by like a train

Like a train

[PostChorus]

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Any closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Setting free, must be tough

[PostChorus]

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be so in love?

Any closer, close enough

Shout out to what is done

R.I.P., here comes the sun

Here comes the sun

[Verse 3]

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time with something

Rudi said it's fine

They used to do this all the time in college

If you and I get comfortable

[Chorus]

And we're on the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time

Watched it speeding by like a train

[PostChorus]

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Any closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Setting free, must be tough

[PostChorus]

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be so in love?

Any closer, close enough

Shout out to what is done

R.I.P., here comes the sun

Here comes the sun
