Ah

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time with somethin'

How was I to know?

How was I to know this high came rushing?

We're on the borderline

Dangerously fine and all forgiven

Possibly a sign

I'm gonna have the strangest night on Sunday

Here I go

Quite a show for a loner in LA

I wonder how I managed to end up in this place

Where I couldn't get away

On the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time

Watched it speedin' by like a train

Like a train

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Any closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Setting free, must be tough

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be so in love?

Any closer, close enough

Shout out to what is done

RIP, here comes the Sun

Here comes the Sun

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time with something

Rudy said it's fine

They used to do this all the time in college (if you and I get comfortable)

And we're on the borderline (ooh)

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time

Watched it speedin' by like a train

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Any closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Setting free, must be tough

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be so in love?

Any closer, close enough

Shout out to what is done

RIP, here comes the Sun
