Video for the single, “Borders and Time”, from The Rankin Family’s 1993 release, “North Country”.
“Borders and Time”
by Jimmy Rankin
I think of you all the time
I’ll pay for my sins
The heartache begins
I can’t free you from my mind
It seems so these days
I’ve tried every way
You have drifted so far from me,
The winds of change have swept you away
Oh…night and day it seems like eternity
Borders and time have kept you from me
Blue are the ocean waters
Along a lover’s shoreline
You will be forgotten
But now that you’ve gone
The heartache lives on
A warm breeze blows over a gentle sea
The summer is near
The heartache is here
The fiddler plays an old time melody
The tune is the same
Change the faces and names
Blue are the ocean waters
Along a lover’s shoreline
You will be forgotten
But now that you’ve gone
The heartache lives on
Blue are the ocean waters
Along a lover’s shoreline
You will be forgotten
But now that you’ve gone
The heartache lives on
Oh, borders and time
The heartache is mine
