Crossing The Border

The shadows are growing longer

And the night is growing cold

My desires are growing stronger

And my memories are growing old

So be gentle with me, darlin'

When you put your hand in mine

For my body's half-forgetful

And it's been a long, long time

When you lay down on my pillow

You can lay it on the line

'Cause you know that I've stopped looking

For the things that I can't find

So go easy with me, darlin'

Don't you hurry, take your time

'Cause I want to think it's you I'm with

And not someone I left behind

Be careful of me, darlin'

Don't ask me what I feel

Old wounds are quick to open

And old scars never heal

If we close our eyes together

We can be where we want to be

It's so easy to be gentle

And it's so hard to be free

It's so easy to be gentle

And it's so hard to be free
