1
There's a place, so I've been told,
2
Every street is paved with gold
3
And it's just across the borderline
4
And when it's time to take your turn
5
There's a lesson that you must learn
6
You may lose more than you'll ever hope to find.
7
And when you reach that broken promised land
8
And all your dreams slip though your hand
9
You have learned it's too late to change your mind
10
Cause you pay the price to come so far
11
Just to wind up where you are
12
And you're still just across the borderline.
13
Up and down the rio grande
14
A thousand foot prints in the sand
15
Reveal a secret no one can define
16
The river rolls on like a breath
17
In between our life and death
18
Tell me who is next to cross that borderline.
19
And when you reach that broken promised land
20
And all your dreams slip though your hand
21
You'll know it's too late to change your mind
22
Cause you pay the price to come so far
23
Just to wind up where you are
24
And you're still just across the borderline.
