Borrowed Time

Thick as thieves

The last of leaves

in the winter sun

Holding fast

This freezing branch

Is home to us



Step, step right over the line

And onto borrowed time

When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide to divide



Counting stars

And passing cars

On the interstate

The end is near

I feel it dear,

But I am not afraid



Step, step right over the line

And onto borrowed time

When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide

To divide



But you say you're getting tired

You're tired and so am I

When you fall I'll fall behind



Step, step right over the line

Onto borrowed time

When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide to divide

But you say you're getting tired

You're tired and so am I

When you fall

I'll fall behind
