Well you crossed the border in '59
You left your family, your loved ones behind
And they say that love is the water that keeps you strong
Well I know that I've been thirsting for you for too long
Well you crossed the border in '59
You left your family, your loved ones behind
And they say that love is the water that keeps you strong
Well I know that I've been thirsting for you for too long
You picked it up and traveled down
You've seen the sun rise over this town
You gave me a smile and you told the truth
Well I know not what I can expect from you
A lonely ride through a quiet town
A solemn soul whose tales are old and they show their shrouds
I, well, I know not what I can expect from you
With leathered skin, pales eyes of blue
A smile that shines high above two worn out boots
I, well, I know not what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
You told me you'd hold me and I watched you go your way
You picked it up, you traveled down
You've seen the sun rise over this town
You left your family, your loved ones behind
And they say that love is the water that keeps you strong
Well I know that I've been thirsting for you for too long
Well you crossed the border in '59
You left your family, your loved ones behind
And they say that love is the water that keeps you strong
Well I know that I've been thirsting for you for too long
You picked it up and traveled down
You've seen the sun rise over this town
You gave me a smile and you told the truth
Well I know not what I can expect from you
A lonely ride through a quiet town
A solemn soul whose tales are old and they show their shrouds
I, well, I know not what I can expect from you
With leathered skin, pales eyes of blue
A smile that shines high above two worn out boots
I, well, I know not what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
I know not, what I can expect from you
You told me you'd hold me and I watched you go your way
You picked it up, you traveled down
You've seen the sun rise over this town
