Lyrics for Borderline

Gone a little far Gone a little far this time with something How was I to know? How was I to know this high came rushing? We're on the borderline Dangerously fine and unforgiven Possibly a sign I'm gonna have the strangest night on Sunday Here I go Quite a show for a loner in L.A.​ I wonder how I managed to end up in this place Where I couldn't get away We're on the borderline (Ooh) Caught between the tides of pain and rapture Then I saw the time Watched it speedin' by like a train Like a train Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be known and loved? Little closer, close enough I'm a loser, loosen up Setting free, must be tough Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be so in love? Any closer? Close enough Shout out to what is done R.I.P., here comes the sun (Comes the sun) Gone a little far Gone a little far this time with something Rudi said it's fine They used to do this all the time in college (If you and I get comfortable) And we're on the borderline (Ooh) Caught between the tides of pain and rapture Then I saw the time Watched it speedin' by like a train Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be known and loved? Little closer, close enough I'm a loser, loosen up Setting free, must be tough Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be so in love? Any closer? Close enough Shout out to what is done R.I.P., here comes the sun (Comes the sun)
