Standin' On The Borderline Lyrics - Carole King

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
