Border Lord — текст песни (Kristofferson Kris)

Darkness had us covered when we split from Minnesota in the morning
In the rain
Black as I was feeling and the street was slick and shiny as a snake
Each of us was a-humming to a half forgotten echo
Hangin` over in the brain
Tappin` time and thinking of the time we never had the time to take
Losing to the rising cost of living high and loving hard
And leavin` every yesterday behind
Learning every bridge you cross, is burning down before you`re off and
running
Like the devil just in time
Chorus:
Breakin` any ties before they bind you
Taking any comfort you can find
Running like you`re running out of time
Take it all-take it easy-till it`s over-understanding
When you`re headin` for the border lord
You`re bound to cross the line
Good lookin` women every time you stumble
Waitin` there to catch you when you fall
Gettin` to you bad enough to let em
Keep you backin` up till just before your back`s against the wall
Chorus:
Breakin` any ties before they bind you
Takin` any comfort you can find
Runnin` like you`re runnin` out of time
Take it all-take it easy-till it`s over-understanding
When you`re headin` for the border lord
You`re bound to cross the line
