Lyrics
Borrowed Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Standing in the doorway of forgiveness
Just like a sinner in the sun
But the sky above her, she hard lover
She don't know which way to run
We're only here, we're only here,
We're only here on borrowed time
If I took too much for granted
If the dark must come before the light
Like the years have followed, leaves me hollow
God knows I need you by my side
We're only here, we're only here,
We're only here on borrowed time
I know my days with you are numbered
When the dust around is clear
You discover a hard lover
You got nothing left to fear
We're only here, we're only here,
We're only here on borrowed time
