Our Borrowed Time - Alexander Roeder

Every fight needs mending, every start has an end Like the sunrise and the sunset, that's just how it is Love on borrowed time will never be yours nor mine I need you like you need me the way we ought to be Oh, it's good to be true If our hopes and dreams come true Wish that I had more Of this borrowed time If only it would last a lifetime This bitterness inside is an empty space I hide It never satisfies living my life in a lie Love on borrowed time will never be yours nor mine I'll just close my eyes, and it will be alright Oh, it's good to be true If our hopes and dreams come true Wish that I had more Of this borrowed time If only it would last a lifetime Now that you've gone away You seem so close, but you're miles and miles away Oh, it's good to be true If our hopes and dreams come true Wish that I had more Of this borrowed time If only it would last Oh, it's good to be true If our hopes and dreams come true Wish that I had more Of this borrowed time If only it would last Oh, it's good to be true If our hopes and dreams come true Wish that I had more Of this borrowed time If only it would last a lifetime

Get in my heart Get in my eyes Open the door Into the light Open your arms Open your eyes Open your heart What will there be left When you're not here to carry me home What will there be left When you're not here to steady my shaking bones What would there be left? I'm killing my borrowed time I'm killing my borrowed time I'm killing my borrowed time What will there be left When the tide rolls in and swallows you whole What will there be left When the light within Hey, I'll cut your throat How little your money's worth Like a bird into a jet plane I'm bringing you back to earth Killing my borrowed time I'm killing my borrowed time It's been a long time coming Don't look so surprised It's the death of all loving Let's go out on a high I'm killing my borrowed time, yes

Ahhh ahh haa a ahh ha ah ahh ha I saw the light but it was too late, too late I wanted to fight but it was too great, too great to fight it Guess I'm loving on borrowed time Didn't know that you could not be mine I'm the fool I guess I'm the fool I guess I started to cry but I was cried out, cried out Cause you opened my eyes but with the light out I couldn't see it Guess I'm loving on borrowed time Didn't know that you could not be mine I'm the fool I guess I'm the fool I guess I begged you to leave her but it was too late, too late Cause though you have deceived her You knew that she'd wait She'd wait forever Guess I'm loving on borrowed time Didn't know that you could not be mine I'm the fool I guess Oh baby Guess I'm loving on borrowed time Didn't know that you could not be mine I'm the fool I guess I'm the fool I guess Oh baby, I'm the fool I guess Oh now, I'm the fool I guess

Waitin' at a stop sign, a school bus passes by Yeah that wasn't long ago, that was me hitchin' a ride And I lost track of many yesterdays, the way it felt to be that age The people, the faces, they all change Ain't it funny how it slips away Yeah we're all down here just a livin' on borrowed time Can't push a button and just hit rewind From the day we're born 'til the day that sun don't shine Yeah we're all down here just livin' on borrowed time I don't wanna live life with regrets Yeah there'll be mistakes I haven't made yet And if you don't climb then you can't fall And money sure don't buy it all And the only thing I know Is you can't take it with you when you go Yeah we're all down here just a livin' on borrowed time Can't push a button and just hit rewind From the day we're born 'til the day that sun don't shine Yeah we're all down here just livin' on borrowed time So just keep livin' it up Cause there's never enough Of livin' and learnin' and lovin' Yeah we're all down here just a livin' on borrowed time Can't push a button and just hit rewind From the day we're born 'til we're standin' in the judgment line Yeah we're all down here just livin' on borrowed time Yeah we're all down here just livin' on borrowed time
