Borderlands

Go, light a fire
And sing what you desire
I desire a good life
Gotta have a good, good life
(Gotta have a good, good life)
Gotta have a good, good life
(Gotta have a good, good life)
Her hair’s like the burning sands
You’ll give her your heart in hand
Her beauty’s beyond compare
But woe to those who’ve seen her
Time has come
For you to feel your life
Got a little doggie and he’s full of the woof woof
Shine on the borderlands
She shines like the galaxy
But woe to all who fear this
Gotta have a good, good life
(Gotta have a good, good life)
Gotta have a good, good life
(Gotta have a good, good life)
So far
So far
So far, everything
So far, everything
So, follow everything
(Men will be men)
So, follow everything
(Men will be men)
So, follow everything
(Men will be men)
So, follow everything
(Men will be men)
Touch me
Touch me
I wanna wake up where you rise
(Touch me)
I want to take you to the light
(Touch me)
With all their frantic run around
(Touch me)
And all they want is to be found
I wanna wake up where you rise
(Touch me)
So long eternal paradise
(Touch me)
Two other worlds which we were bound
(Touch me)
Now they are dust upon the ground
Life, it's tragic
It's life, it's tragic
It's life, it's magic
It's life, it's madness
It's life
It's life
There’s a sign on the borderlands
It says: Shine like the galaxy and woe to all who fear this
Sign on the borderlands
It says: Shine like the galaxy although no one will hear this
Sign on the borderlands
It says: Shine like the galaxy and woe to all
