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.
I turn my back on him
Now it's you that makes me smile
But in your arms, I'm restless
Like I'm leaving in awhile
I let the match and burned my bridges
You were mine
Now I got this feeling
You'll be the next in line
Chorus:
Living on the love of another man's woman
That's loving on borrowed time
Like to make a song last forever
But the next dance won't be mine
Living on the love of another man's woman
That's loving on borrowed time
My old love's broken pieces
And I ain't met the new
You're here in the middle
Hanging on until I do
Cause I'm a train that stops
At every station down the line
You're a fool so desperate
That you'll ride on borrowed time
Chorus x 3
