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.
We met along the back streets where we would not be seen. Our bodies full of passion, with love our only dream. The neon flashed in our hotel room, but I never complained.
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.
Decades pass in just one year. And your illusions disappear. And you fear the speeding time. . You find a dream that you embrace. Look the other way and it's a race.
STAND BEHIND ME. by Carole King. . I was wanting someone to talk to. Needing to let myself out. Knowing beyond a doubt the past is behind me. . There was nowhere but here to walk to.
SPACESHIP RACES. by Gerry Goffin & Carole King. . Baby you're so frazzled. Spining around in a Busby swirl. With all that razzle, dazzle. I know at heart you want.
Whispering wind came uninvited. Looking for somewhere else to go. Here is a lamp I've left unlighted. Aren't you someone I should know?. . Memory's flame is soon ignited.
When the sun goes down. Over the canyon. And you're feeling. Lost and abandoned. Some stranger may knock. Upon your door. And it may be like knowing. Someone you never met before.
Something in the way she moves, or looks my way, or calls my name*. That seems to leave this troubled world behind.. And if I'm feeling down and blue or troubled by some foolish game,.
When there's a dark storm on your horizon. And you think you can't get through it. Just put your hand in my hand. And I'll show you how to do it. . When the future looks uncertain.
All you have to do is touch my hand. To show me you understand. And something happens to me. That's some kind of wonderful. . Anytime my little world is blue.
SO MANY WAYS. by Carole King. . So many ways. So many ways to show you love someone. So many ways to show someone you care. . We have so much in common.
I've been waiting to find someone just like you. I knew when I saw you. I'd be someone who could bring out the best in you. I would be good for you. .
So far away. Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?. It would be so fine to see your face at my door. Doesn't help to know you're just time away. .
High on a snow covered mountain. From her throne she looks down at the clowns. Who think youth can be found in a fountain. High on the wings of her rhythms.
Now, Smackwater Jack,. He bought a shotgun. 'Cause he was in the mood. For a little confrontation.. He just a-let it all hang loose;. He didn't think about the noose..
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling. Ring ting tingling too. Come on, it's lovely weather. For a sleigh ride together with you. . Outside the snow is falling.
Simple things mean a lot to me. Some things only children can see. Simple things like horses running free. And easy acceptance of life. . Simple things never compromise.
Since a time before my memory. He's been without a home. Once he lived on an open plain where wildlife grazed. And buffalo used to roam. Red was the sunrise on the dawn of his creation.
Words and Music by. Carole King. . Seems so hard. All I want to do is let down my guard. Laugh like a child and play out in the yard. I want to feel safe again.
