Carole King - Standin' On The Borderline lyrics

We're standin' on the borderline

Between falling in love and falling apart

I'm ready to cross the borderline

If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

Nothing really holds a candle to love

But y'gotta know how to handle your love

If y'want it to last

Y'just can't let it burn out too fast

Y'can't stand still on the borderline

You either make your move or y' turn away

I'm too close to the borderline

I'm coming across it, y' want me to stay

Y'know I'm experienced

Every day can't be a fireworks show

But when y'walk in the room

And it starts to glow

You don't have to tell me

I already know

We're ready to cross the borderline

Between falling in love and falling apart

We're ready to cross the borderline

If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

We're standin' on the borderline

Ready to cross the borderline

Standin' on the borderline

If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

We're standin' on the borderline

Ready to cross the borderline

Standin' on the borderline

If I can't have you, it'll break my heart
