I sit upon a hill and gaze out on the diamond lights
Strange night, strange city, down below
Neon lights will guide me
Take us all to a better place

Hang on, hang on
Wait for me, just wait for me
Another's smile reminds me
The past is ours, old friend of mine

The pictures still remain
One more night
Hold on, hold on
One more night

With these borderline blues
From a whisper to a shout
Before the flame burns out
Tomorrow is forever

So hold on one more night
Borderline blues
On the run in another city
Another country far from home

Walk slow and listen, the soul says it all
Silent conversations
Borderline blues far behind me
There lies my destiny

Wating for me, waiting for me
It's takin' me a long time
Long lost from sleeping
I'm coming home, I'm coming home

One more night
Hold on, hold on
One more night
With these borderline blues

From a whisper to a shout
Before the flame burns out
Tomorrow is forever
So hold on one more night

Borderline blues
I see the coast, the stars
Spread to the four corners of the world
Free for just an instant

As I fell back down to earth
It's not enough to care anymore
Not enough room to hide
Troubles come and go

But the child remains inside (inside)
One more night
Hold on, hold on
One more night

With these borderline blues
From a whisper to a shout
Before the flame burns out
Tomorrow is forever

So hold on one more night
Borderline blues
