Borderlines Lyrics

I've been graced by this holy place, oh

In my hometown, that sweet green sound

On the borderlines, life is so divine

Is it a given?

But I've seen pain that won't go away, oh

In war-torn lands, don't understand

Oh a lucky life, how the hell's it mine?

Am I forgiven?

This small world has opened up my eyes

So much life found on the borderlines

Cross the seas and open up your mind

Forgive me please for all the love you find

I've seen rainfall and sun make rainbows

From my window, I let it go

All the borderlines, they were once as mine

And in the middle

But I've seen rage, oh and loveless games, oh

And battle grounds, in my own house

All the borderlines, now they're great divides

I'm only little

This small world has opened up my eyes

So much loss found on the borderlines

Cross my heart, baby I hope I'm right

When I touch down back on the other side

Forgotten lands sink into the sands of history

Like that old stone town where the dragon drowned in mystery

And all these lives on the borderlines, well they're history

But the legend dies if we let it by, so come sing with me

This small world has opened up my eyes

So much love found on the borderlines

Cross the seas and open up your mind

Forgive me please for everything you find

This small world has opened up my eyes

So much life found on the borderlines

Cross my heart, baby I hope I'm right

When I touch down back on the other side
