Ry Cooder – Borderline Lyrics 13 years ago
Well, I'll just do it here then

Across The Borderline Lyrics

(ry cooder/john hiatt/james dickinson)

There’s a place where I’ve been told
Every street is paved with gold
And it’s just across the borderline
And when it’s time to take your turn
Here’s one lesson that you must learn
You could lose more than you’ll ever hope to find

When you reach the broken promised land
And every dream slips through your hands
Then you’ll know that it’s too late to change your mind
’cause you’ve paid the price to come so far
Just to wind up where you are
And you’re still just across the borderline

Up and down the rio grande
A thousand footprints in the sand
Reveal a secret no one can define
The river flows on like a breath
In between our life and death
Tell me who’s the next to cross the borderline

En la triste oscuridad
Hoy tenemos que cruzar
Este río que nos llama más allá

But hope remains when pride is gone
And it keeps you moving on
Calling you across the borderline

When you reach the broken promised land
Every dream slips through your hands
And you’ll know it’s too late to change your mind
’cause you pay the price to come so far
Just to wind up where you are
And you’re still just across the borderline
Now you’re still just across the borderline
And you’re still just across the borderline

Jackson Browne – Song For Adam Lyrics 13 years ago
I had a friend, Dan, who was some yeas older than I and was pretty much my hero. He was very much like Adam as you describe him. I lost track of Dan somehow in the late '90s. Over the years I tried to find him but never could. Then two years ago I heard that he had suicided himself in '03. I was so shocked. If my friend Dan, who was so positive, always ready with a smile and a kind word, could do that, it was possible, even OK, for anyone else to take their own life.

This was definitely NOT written for his wife. She died in '76 and this came out in September '74
