Lyrics:

A man can only last so long
Before temptation gets too strong
And I'm doin' all I know to do
To try to stay away from you
But I'm right on the Borderline
You know, I got a woman at home
I sure hate to leave alone
Still, you just keep comin' on
Like I'm not made of flesh and bone
You got me right on the Borderline
Borderline, don't let me cross over
She's right behind me in the moonlight
Lord knows, I've tried to think of my lover
Borderline, don't let me cross her tonight
Promises are easy made
In the heat of passion, light of day
But let that daylight start to fade
And your best laid plans might get mislaid
When you're right on the Borderline
Borderline, don't let me cross over
She's right behind me in the moonlight
Lord knows, I've tried to think of my lover
Borderline, don't let me cross her tonight
Borderline, don't let me cross her tonight

Borderline, don't let me cross her tonight
