Borderline
Love's Battle: Jody Watley's Borderline Emotion
Lyrics
Something in the way you love me
The way you love me has a certain quality
Just won't let me be
It's difficult for me to escape or break free from this love
I don't want to be your prisoner
I don't desire to feel trapped or confined in this relationship
So baby, won't you set me free?
I'm asking you to release me from this situation
Stop playing with my heart, finish what you start
Stop toying with my emotions, follow through with your actions
When you make my love come down
When you cause my feelings of love and desire to intensify
If you want me let it show, baby, let me know
If you want a relationship, make it evident, communicate your intentions
Honey, don't you fool around
Please don't deceive or play games with me
Just try to understand
Try to comprehend my perspective
I've given all I can
I've given my utmost effort
But you've got the best of me
However, you've taken advantage of me and my feelings
Borderline
I feel as though I'm on the edge
It feels like I'm going to lose my mind
It seems like I'm close to losing my sanity
You keep pushing my love
Your actions are continually testing the limits of my love
Over the borderline
You're consistently pushing my affection beyond acceptable boundaries
Borderline
I'm at the verge
It feels like I'm going to lose my mind
Similar feeling of almost losing control due to your actions
You keep pushing my love
Your behavior keeps challenging the boundaries of my love
Over the borderline, yeah, yeah
You repeatedly exceed the limits of what's acceptable
Something in your eyes
Your gaze or expression is causing me embarrassment or making me look foolish
Is making such a fool of me
Your actions or behavior are making me appear foolish or naive
When you hold me in your arms
When you embrace me, you love me excessively to the point of confusion
You love me till I just can't see
Your affection blinds me, making me unable to see clearly
But then you let me down when I look around
However, you disappoint me when I need you, and you're absent
Baby, you just can't be found
You're not present or available when I seek you
Stop driving me away, I just wanna stay
Stop pushing me away, I want to remain close
And there's something I just got to say
There's something crucial I need to express
Just try to understand
Attempt to see things from my viewpoint
I've given all I can
I've given my all
And you've got the best of me
Yet, you've taken advantage of my efforts and emotions
Borderline
Once again, I feel at the edge
It feels like I'm going to lose my mind
It feels like I'm on the brink of losing control
You keep pushing my love
Your actions consistently challenge the boundaries of my love
Over the borderline
You're repeatedly crossing the acceptable limits of affection
Borderline
Similar feelings of being on the edge
Feels like I'm going to lose my mind
Similar sensation of almost losing mental stability due to actions
Keep pushing my love
Your actions continue to exceed acceptable limits of my affection
Over the borderline
You're consistently pushing beyond acceptable boundaries
Borderline
Reiteration of feeling on the edge or close to a breaking point
Borderline
Repeated emphasis on being at the edge or boundary
Borderline
Repetition emphasizing the feeling of being at the limit or boundary
