Borrowed Time
Oh I'm not as quick as I once was
And I can feel my candle burning
And as years pass by me, I have found
There's a few things I am learning
Oh that big ole sun it rises every day
But I've learned to see it like the first time
Oh they say that youth is
Wasted on the young
When you're old, you're old and empty
But have you looked into an old woman's eyes
When she speaks of being twenty
Oh how memories can burn, while they warm
But I've learned to let my memories fill me
Cause we are living on a borrowed time
A time to go and a time to come
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
I have spent a decade in one man's arms
And I still feel his breath upon me
And I have held a new life in my hands
And held that same life while it left me
So keep the hope in eyes, and the song in your heart
Then hold on tight it's for the taking
Cause we are living on a borrowed time
A time to go and a time to come
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
And I can feel my candle burning
And as years pass by me, I have found
There's a few things I am learning
Oh that big ole sun it rises every day
But I've learned to see it like the first time
Oh they say that youth is
Wasted on the young
When you're old, you're old and empty
But have you looked into an old woman's eyes
When she speaks of being twenty
Oh how memories can burn, while they warm
But I've learned to let my memories fill me
Cause we are living on a borrowed time
A time to go and a time to come
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
I have spent a decade in one man's arms
And I still feel his breath upon me
And I have held a new life in my hands
And held that same life while it left me
So keep the hope in eyes, and the song in your heart
Then hold on tight it's for the taking
Cause we are living on a borrowed time
A time to go and a time to come
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
Friends and lovers keep us warm, safe and covered
While we're all here on borrowed time
