On The Border (Live) (2001 Digital Remaster) - Al Stewart[00:00:01]
The fishing boats go out across the evening water[00:00:48]
Smuggling guns and arms across the Spanish border[00:00:52]
The wind whips up the waves so loud[00:00:57]
The ghost moon sails among the clouds[00:00:59]
And turns the rifles into silver on the border[00:01:02]
On my wall the colors of the maps are running[00:01:14]
From Africa the winds they talk of changes coming[00:01:19]
The torches flare up in the night[00:01:24]
The hand that sets the farms alight[00:01:26]
Has spread the word to those who're waiting on the border[00:01:29]
In the village where I grew up[00:01:36]
Nothing seems the same[00:01:38]
Still you never see the change from day to day[00:01:41]
No one notices the customs slip away[00:01:45]
Late last night the rain was knocking on my window[00:02:03]
I moved across the darkened room and in the lamp-glow[00:02:07]
I thought I saw down in the street[00:02:12]
The spirit of the century[00:02:14]
Telling us that we're all standing on the border[00:02:17]
In the islands where I grew up[00:02:25]
Nothing seems the same[00:02:27]
It's just the patterns that remain an empty shell[00:02:29]
But there's a strangeness in the air you feel too well[00:02:33]
The fishing boats go out across the evening water[00:02:51]
Smuggling guns and arms across the Spanish border[00:02:56]
The wind whips up the waves so loud[00:03:00]
The ghost moon sails among the clouds[00:03:03]
And turns the rifles into silver on the border[00:03:05]
On the border[00:03:13]
On the border[00:03:17]
On the border[00:03:22]
