Borderline lyrics??
« on: November 28, 2008, 09:47:10 PM »

Does anyone have the lyrics of "Borderline"?

I think it is:

I'm asking now, please
Will you catch me, will I hide?
I beggin on my knees
Will you be there when I call?

Borderline...

What is the meaning of Borderline in the song?

Sorry I am french Roll Eyes

I don't unserstand why people who speak in english don't understand perfectly what lryrics says  Huh  Huh

It's confused for those whose mother language is another one; I think the mini clip sounds clear to be understand for many of you without speculations...

I think is just normal... Wink
Zudeek speaks spanish like me...but i bet i can give him an Argentinian song and he won't be able to figure out the exact lyrics. Same thing if i do the same with a Mexican one.
Could happen teh same with English...but i really don't know  Huh
Anyway...somebody who speaks english as mother language posted lyrics? I think not...

Haahahah
I thought that too Tongue
"English native speakers should get all English lyrics"
but then I realized it's normal for them not to understand something... I sometimes don't get Spanish lyrics! for example, that boringly repeated new hit of La Oreja de Van Gogh: "Siempre seras bienvenido a este lugar, a mi vida de obsesiones..." and what else??? I can't get the following line! Shocked Embarrassed Embarrassed Grin
Btw someone else can hear "when I call" at the end.
I'm almost sure "call" is the word Wink

I used to have trouble getting Shakira's Estoy Aqui, actually I had to read the lyrics...

Estoy aquí queriéndote ahogándome
entre fotos y cuadernos
entre cosas y recuerdos
que no puedo comprender
estoy enloqueciendome cambiando
%&@#!!?Huh? (un pie por la cara mía, esta noche por el día y que)
nada le puedo yo hacer...

 Grin Grin

about Borderline, I'm almost sure it's "will you catch me when I fall?", the first time and then "will you be there when I call?"

lol
I was a language major and find it fascinating on different dialects.
Being American  we tend to forget the other English accents.
We along have about 10 different accents here.
SO sometimes I can be taken back at a heavy Irish,Australian or English accent.
But I understand what someone is saying when I start to think of myself speaking in that accent.

Dolores has a very heavy Irish accent and called a Limerick /Cork accent very different from the Dubliners.lol. Reason being I assume is the Gaelic influence .
Northern Ireland is more English/Scottish influence.
One guy best described it (from the profile on RTE) that he was happy to see someone with that accent singing on TV in Ireland as seems not too many singers come from the Southern part of Ireland.
I met some people this summer from Limerick who also speak Gaelic and had the same accent as Dolores.

Gave me a big smile as I love their accent. They sang in Gaelic
Their accent was contagious as I was starting  to speak like them.lol
My mom tells me to do their accent Wink

I know this is old, but yesterday listening the preview tracks (lol) i found a connection between ¨Borderline¨and ¨Switch of the Moment¨, are the same track, really?

Maybe everybody know it, but is a doubt for me ahahah...and i never read this discussion before

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall

Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!
teach me to be shy
