Lyrics

Borrowing

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.

You're probably sitting at a bar

Fingers loosely cradling a glass

I'm miles from where you are

I can't remember when I saw you last

We both have so-called responsibilities

And others to answer to tomorrow

But, right now, I'm begging you to be my safety

The kind of love I can't return

But I'm going to borrow

Your eyes meet mine

The lights are playing shadows right down to your collar

Your love is calling

I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her

I'm sorry, darling

I know he's yours

I know you make him breakfast

And fit between his arms

In turn of borrowing a perfect man

I'm borrowing a broken love

I'm sorry, darling

I know he's yours

I know you wear his class ring

And I don't mean you any harm

In turn of borrowing a perfect man

I'm borrowing a broken love

Your laughing offers some honest conversation

Catch me in the cracks between your crooked smile

Your words are more like illustrations

Toss your head back

But I know you'll stay awhile

Your eyes meet mine

The lights are playing shadows right down to your collar

In turn of borrowing a perfect man

I'm borrowing a broken love

Your love is calling

I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her

In turn of borrowing a perfect man

I'm borrowing a broken love

Tell me, how can a heavy heart be so empty?

You left all your baggage on my step

When you went and left me

I'm sorry, darling

I know he's yours

I know you make him breakfast

And fit between his arms

In turn of borrowing my perfect man

I'm borrowing your broken love

I'm sorry, darling

I know he's yours

I know you keep him close

And I don't mean you any harm

In turn of borrowing a perfect man

I'm borrowing a broken love
