Borrowed Lyrics by Dan Wilson

Re-Covered

0

I know you're not mine, only borrowed
'Cause you already belong to him, at least you said so
But I'm starting to believe it ain't the whole truth
'Cause as we're lying side by side, I get the whole you

I Wanna hold out, but gotta hold on
Even though I know it's wrong
I don't want to give you back
I don't want to give you back
You're the best I'll ever have
And I don't want to give you back
But you're borrowed

Do you tell him that you love him
Like you do me
Do you make love to him
The way you make love to me
Well I keep myself alone in case you call at night
It's pathetic how I lie around
And wait all the damn time
It's a short high and long low
Even when you have to go

I don't want to give you back
I don't want to give you back
You're the best I'll never have
And I don't want to give you back
But you're borrowed
Only borrowed

How much time is left 'til you don't return
Don't return
How much time, time is left 'til you don't return
How much time
How much time

I know you're not mine, only borrowed
And I don't want to give you back
I don't want to give you back
You're the best I'll ever have
And I don't want to give you back
I don't want to give you back
I don't want to give you back
You're the best I've ever had
And I don't want to give you back
But you're borrowed, only borrowed
Borrowed
