You must be lost in a faraway land 
I searched forever your footprints in the sand 
I feel you need me, I have to answer 
That desperate call that I do not understand 

A burning bridge, a lonely highway 
Another dark night thinking alone 
What could've happened, am I just dreaming 
It doesn't matter but there's one thing that I know 

If I could make it to the border 
If I could make it to the coast 
If I could make it to the border 
I'd be in the arms of the girl I love the most 

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 

So on and on I keep on running 
To make the border before the light 
Just one more river, then I can make it 
Again you'll be in my arms tonight 

If I could make it to the border 
If I could make it to the coast 
If I could make it to the border 
I'd be in the arms of the girl I love the most 

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 

If I could make it to the border 
If I could make it to the coast 
If I could make it to the border 
I'd be in the arms of the girl I love the most 

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do 
Make it to the border ...
