J D Souther - The Border Guard lyrics
Your rating:
She gave me a heart in a woman's hand Carved in cherry-wood The severed part from a foreign land I clearly understood Love has a border and I can't cross over Love has a border and a right and a wrong Love has a border, some kind of an order Beyond that border I don't belong I sleep all day and dream all night Prowling up the coast I have my way when the moon is bright I'm howling like a ghost Love has a border and I can't cross over Love has a border and a right and a wrong Love has a border, some kind of an order Beyond that border I don't belong I ain't going to heaven now 'Cause I learned too many tricks I just wanna get over this wall How come I sit here making bricks And mold her, guarding the border So I keep that hand like a secret wife A coin I never spent Far away there's a place in life I never really went Love has a border, I can't cross over Love has a border and a right and a wrong Love has a border, some kind of an order Beyond that border I don't belong Guarding the border
