lyrics

BORDER TOWN: Music & Lyrics - Bill and John Storch

Say the word, but keep your secrets close.
Hold your breath. Now breath deep and let it go.
I'll be your 'run to', your 'every turn to', I'll catch your every move.
Say the word...
My little starshine, what have they done to you?

Hanging out the clothes to dry
Dirty secrets never die
Hanging out and telling lies.
Trouble always follows you,
The backseat could never do.
Loving you was always cruel.

This is a hold up. Rolling your sleeves up.
This is a crime for two.
My little starshine, what have they done to you?

Chorus:
I'm leaving it up to you: You can take it or tear it down.
What have you got to loose?
Kicking the dirt up, lost in a Border Town.

Ohhh, giving in, giving out.
Ohhh, taken in, taken out, giving in.
Giving out.

Close your eyes and look at the flashing lights.
Say your name and let it all float away.
Don't loose your patience, don't loose your temper,
Don't make the worst come true.
Say your name, oh
My little starshine, what have they done to you?

Chorus:
I'm leaving it up to you: You can take it or tear it down.
What have you got to loose?
Kicking the dirt up, lost in a Border Town.
Don't let them drag you down.
What have you got to loose, lost in a Border Town?
