I'm On the Border

Lyrics for I'm On the Border

I'm on the Border: Imagine if I had to go And I never saw you again Not even at the show or every other weekend Not at the Seder or Christmas in Paris Never again Not a ghost of a chance Imagine when we die We all met in heaven I’m sure they let folk like us Into heaven these days I would say “Hi! You look the same as ever” You say that you’ve been busy But with what you can’t remember I’m on the border almost looking in I can see the light bouncing off your skin You sure look fine from up here in the sky Hold my face tight and try not to cry How could they tear us apart? The answer is they can’t One day like today I’ll have to go away Know that when I go a part of me remains Deep in the night I’ll be awake See me through the dark and the roaring waves See me in the light and I’m sunshine bathed How could they tear us apart? The answer is they can’t
