Baby baby
I'm playing it cool
Like a lovestruck girl
From my old high school
You taste so sweet
I'm trying hard
To follow my rules
Cause I don't want to be one of those forlorn
Fools out on the street
Although I could fall
I know you could too
Right over the line
You could be mine
But we're doing the dance
That two lovers do when they're out of time
On the borderline

Babe I don't want you to see me this way
So vulnerable I give my heart away and it makes me weak
Used to be I was a Rock of Gibraltar now I stumble all over my feet and I falter when I try to speak
Out on the edge of the great divide the unspeakable chasm is between us
And the places we run to though we cannot hide from the neon sign
On the borderline
I don't want to waste anymore time around here if no one's going to throw me a heart line
Oh it might be the right thing to just disappear by the morning time
On the borderline
From the borderline
