On Borrowed Time by Keywest Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She said, "Sing it like you mean it
Think before you start
Because I've only got room for one"
Darling, tryna make a scene, it's not
The first time we've been apart
She wants to live life while we're young

[Pre-Chorus]
But why do we only have to say goodbye?

[Chorus]
She said, "Look at me, look at me
Take my hand, and try to breathe
Because for now we live on borrowed time"
Don't you speak, don't you speak
Close your eyes, please let me leave
No, I can't bear another moment on borrowed time

[Verse 2]
I'm so tired of the phone calls
And I don't get no sleep
Tell you again why you had to move
Could you choose your job over you and me?
Like for you it's only 10 P.M
Back home, it's almost 3
I imagine you're out on the town
Knocking 'em down, your first of many G&Ts
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why do we only have to say goodbye?

[Chorus]
She said, "Look at me, look at me
Take my hand, and try to breathe
Because for now we live on borrowed time"
Don't you speak, don't you speak
Close your eyes, please let me leave
No, I can't bear another moment on borrowed time

[Bridge]
Try to hold on
There's a grain of truth inside the lies
Face you, what was loved
You no longer recognise
Take my hand and let's just run
Let me save our lives, my dear
Our end is near

[Chorus]
Don't you speak, don't you speak
Just close your eyes, let me leave
No, I can't bear another moment of borrowed time
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
Try to save our lives, my dear
Our end is near
