[Intro: Kevin Parker]
Line, tides, pain
Sign, strange, night
Line, tides, pain
Sign, strange, night
[Verse 1: Kevin Parker]
Gone a little far
Gone a little far this time for something
How was I to know?
How was I to know this high came rushing?
[Refrain: Kevin Parker]
We're on the borderline
Caught between the tides of pain and rapture
Possibly a sign
I'm gonna have the strangest night on Sunday
[Verse 2: Kevin Parker]
Go, there I go
Quite a show for a loner in L.A.
Askin' how I managed to end up in this place
And I couldn't get away
[Refrain: Kevin Parker]
We're on the borderline
Dangerously far and all forgiven
There's gonna bе a fight
Gonna be a price to pay on Monday
We'rе on the borderline (On the borderline)
Caught between the tides of pain and rapture
Then I saw the time (Then I saw the time)
Watched it speedin' by like a train, like a train
[Chorus]
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?
Little 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?
If there's room, room for doubt
As within, as without ya
Will I be so in love?
Any closer? Close enough
Shout out to what is done
R.I.P., here comes the Sun
Here comes the Sun
Ah, ah, ah
[Verse 3]
Gone a little far
Gone a little far this time with something
How could I have known?
How was I to know this high came rushing?
I said, "Come with me outside"
I need to clear my mind, this weight is crushing
Do you see the light, oh
Coming from their eyes? Oh no
And I couldn't get away
[Refrain]
We're on the borderline (Ooh)
Gets me every time, these close encounters
Just to know I can (Just to know I can)
Once again, I am alone
[Chorus]
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?
Little closer, close enough
I'm a loser, loosen up
Setting free, must be tough (I was fine without ya)
Will I be known and loved?
L.A. really messed me up
And it isn't cut and dry
Conversation, well, I tried (I was fine without ya)
Will I be? Stay right here
Any closer? Bad idea
Shout out to what is done
R.I.P., here comes the sun (I was fine without ya)
Will I be known and loved?
Is there one that I trust?
Starting to sober up
Has it been long enough?
