And the signposts disappear
The brown-eyed girl from the battleground
But said you could not stay
And she reached out her hand
My home is both sides of the borderland
But roads fade out before you reach the line
Who can't tell fire from rain
So good to be home in the borderland
So he knows where I'll be
Where things are not what they seem
Friends are friends but in the borderland
She gazed upon the mountain above
No use trying to work with people
Where things are not what they seem
So good to be home in the borderland
But I knew more than he
So good to be home in the borderland
Between the dawn and the dream
The judge had tried to hitch a ride
So good to be home in the borderland
And loved the borderland
The businessman in a sleek sedan
The border-guard had let her pass
Thought he could beat me here
Had just met me half-way
But I only took him half way
The sheriff sent me every warning he could
The she let go with all her might
You can't be careful of what you say
