Borrowing

You're probably sitting at a bar
Fingers loosely cradling a glass
I'm miles from where you are
Can't remember when I saw you last
We both have so called responsibilities
And others to answer to tomorrow
But right now I'm begging you to be my safety
The kind of love I can't return
But I'm gonna borrow

Your eyes meet mine
The lights are playing shadows right
Down to your collar your love is calling
I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her
I'm sorry darling, I know he's yours
I know you make him breakfast
And fit between his arms
Tonight I'm borrowing a perfect man
I'm borrowing your broken love
I'm sorry darling, I know he's yours
I know you wear his class ring and
I don't mean you any harm
Tonight I'm borrowing a perfect man
I'm borrowing your broken love

You laugh and offer some honest conversation
Catch me in the cracks
Between your crooked smile
Your words are more like illustrations
Toss your head back
But I know you'll stay a while

Your eyes meet mine
The lights are playing shadows right
Down to your collar
Tonight I'm borrowing a broken man
I'm borrowing your perfect love
Your love is calling
I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her
Tonight I'm borrowing a broken man
I'm borrowing your perfect love

Tell me, how can a heavy heart be so empty?
You left all your baggage on my steps
When you went and left me

I'm sorry darling, I know he's yours
I know you make him breakfast
And fit between his arms
Tonight I'm borrowing a perfect man
I'm borrowing your broken man
I'm sorry darling, I know he's yours
I know you keep him close and
I don't mean you any harm
Tonight I'm borrowing a perfect man
I'm borrowing your broken love
