|
I'm standing in the station,
|
I am waiting for a train,
|
To take me to the border,
|
And my loved one far away,
|
I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war,
|
I could hardly even bear to see them go;
|
|
Rolling through the countryside,
|
Tears are in my eyes,
|
We're coming to the borderline,
|
I'm ready with my lies,
|
And in the early morning rain, I see her there,
|
And I know I'll have to say goodbye again;
|
|
And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,
|
I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,
|
I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
|
Don't let go, I want to know,
|
That you will wait for me until the day,
|
There's no borderline, no borderline;
|
|
Walking past the border guards,
|
Reaching for her hand,
|
Showing no emotion,
|
I want to break into a run,
|
But these are only boys, and I will never know,
|
How men can see the wisdom in a war...
|
|
And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,
|
I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,
|
I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
|
Don't let go, I want to know,
|
That you will wait for me until the day,
|
There's no borderline, no borderline...
|
|
No borderline, no borderline...
