Borrowed Time |
Oh precious life |
How you loved to lie to me |
So recklessly fragile |
So beyond my power to see |
And yet so demanding |
By making me believe |
That I am standing |
In the way of my own reprieve |
That all our days are numbered |
No matter the amount |
There’s a first and then at last |
There is finally the fact |
That the numerals just don’t count |
And all our time is borrowed |
No deposit, no return |
And no promise of tomorrow or the next day |
What was lent you can never earn |
If I took care of you |
And loved you all your days |
I’d still have to let you go |
Cause nothing ever stays |
You taught me to stand |
And then you left the job to me |
Now as a man |
I’m finally forced to see |
That all our days are numbered |
No matter the amount |
There’s a first and then at last |
There is finally the fact |
That the numerals just don’t count |
And all our time is borrowed |
No deposit, no return |
And no promise of tomorrow or the next day |
What was lent you can never earn |
What was lent you can never earn |
What was lent you can never earn |
What was lent you can never earn |
