BORROWED DAYS

V6

[Intro] [Verse 1] You leave the kitchen light on Even when it’s dawn A calendar still turning A date that won’t move on I watch the shadows lengthen Black across the floor The morning keeps returning Without remembering why [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we were only Borrowing a day Maybe every hour Came a little late (Too late) [Chorus] We live in borrowed days Turning as they pass Holding onto minutes That were never meant to last If I turn the clock now Would it feel the same? Or would it disappear Before it reaches us again? (Again) (Again) [Post-Chorus] [Verse 2] You walk the same old pavement Like you’ve never been around Waiting at the same place Never looking down I leave the door half-open Like I did the day before Everything is moving Nothing moves at all [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we were waiting For another life Maybe every morning Was the only honest part (So quiet) [Chorus] We live in borrowed days Turning as they pass Holding onto minutes That were never meant to last If I turn the clock now Would it feel the same? Or would it disappear Before it reaches us again? (Again) (Again) (Stay...) (Stay...) [Bridge] I don’t need tomorrow I don’t need a sign Some things only happen Once outside of time And then become A day we leave behind [Final Chorus] We live in borrowed days Turning as they pass Nothing lasts forever Nothing needs to last If I turn the clock now Let it lose its place Let it disappear Before it reaches us again (Again) (Again)
