Cross the Line

about

A fairly raucous love song about love that's powerful enough to ignore all borders and anything we might do to stop it coming in.

lyrics

Cross the Line ©2018 KL Dennis

I was stranded out in no-man’s land
Radio voices I couldn’t understand
Somewhere somehow someone lied
And enemies were on every side;
I was a virtual prisoner
I had a passport but didn’t know where
But then you came to me at night
And put my life in order…
Your love did not stop at any border
No, your love did not stop at any border

With you I’m always outside the wire
With you I’m dealing with constant fire
I’ve got no agents to send you home
But I’ve got no future here alone
So cross the line
Cross the line
Cross the line that you can’t see
Cross that invisible border line with me

It was the hour when it all went wrong
I knew this was not where I belonged;
I’ve been in many scary places
But none so bad as when the fears have faces
Misunderstandings do occur
When roadmaps are not entirely clear
But then you arrived all unexpected
And unlike me and my accuser…
Your love did not stop at any border
No, your love did not stop at any border

Bridge:
I’ve always kept within my limit
I didn’t much like to go out of it
But then you turned up deep inside
And I realized there was no place to hide

All my barriers fell down
The day you came into this town
There was instant recognition
As I realized my true position;
There were failures on my perimeter
The entrances were not secure
I was exposed and though I tried to run
I could not see the point of going further…
Your love does not stop at any border
No, your love does not stop at any border

With you I’m always outside the wire
With you I’m dealing with constant fire
I’ve got no agents to send you home
But I’ve got no future here alone
So cross the line
Cross the line
Cross the line that you can’t see
Cross that invisible border line with me

K L Dennis Los Angeles, California

I'm a rebel against the way things are going. I'm a Christian who didn't vote the same way as many of my brothers and sisters. I write songs about things that matter to a man who wakes up in an increasingly strange world, and then turns that into songs. I started with five chords and the truth; now I have a few more chords. Still going for truth. ... more
