Across The Border

Tonight my bag is packed
Tomorrow I'll walk these tracks
That will lead me 'cross the borderTomorrow my love and I
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies
Somewhere across the borderWe'll leave behind my dear
The pain and sadness we found here
And we'll drink from the Bravo's muddy waterWhere the sky grows gray and wide
We'll meet on the other side
There across the borderFor you I'll build a house
High upon a grassy hill
Somewhere across the borderWhere pain and memory
Pain and memory have been stilled
There across the borderAnd sweet blossoms fill the air
Pastures of gold and green
Roll down into cool clear watersAnd in your arms 'neath open skies
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes
There across the borderTonight we'll sing the songs
I'll dream of you my corazn
And tomorrow my heart will be strongAnd may the saints' blessing and grace
Carry me safely into your arms
There across the borderFor what are we
Without hope in our hearts
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed watersAnd eat the fruit from the vine
I know love and fortune will be mine
Somewhere across the border
