Borderline Lyrics

I'm borderline on 23

And I've been thinking

Too many thoughts are floating in my head

I'm borderline on 23

And I've abandoned all the dreams I had

When I was a kid

Cause nowadays a farm seems better than ever

A small group of friends to get you through bad weather

A girl by my side to lay down with as my wife

Kids to guide our hands when we cross

Is it too much to ask to find a bar

My friends and I go to when times get hard

Till we all drift away to meet our own end of days

And think back to the laughs those stools gave

Is it too much to ask to find a peaceful bit of land

With a church nearby ripe for Sunday mass

Cause I'm borderline on 23

Just a young gun

Too young to think about all these things

Yet here I am

I'm borderline on 23

And I've abandoned all the dreams I had

And now I'm a working man

Son you're borderline on 23

Time to let go of all the dreams you had

Now you're a working man
