Borrow Me Twice

Verse

You're the one I borrowed time from last

Two turns of my watch and that's all it passed

I still owe you more than just the hour or two

This is what I wanted, so stay right here with me too

The stars outside are burning bright as we talk

The streetlights casting shadows like a thousand candles walking down the block

We're not running out of time, not yet at least

Every second feels twice as long since you pressed my hand to yours and said 'let's

Pre-Chorus

So say it slow, I want to hear it clear

Will you borrow me twice more this year?

Two turns left before the clock runs thin

Let's make these seconds count, just us in here

Chorus

Borrow me twice, let me stay right here with you

Verse

We walked through alleys where the streetlights don't shine

Found a bench beneath a streetlamp so divine

The city's sleeping but we're wide awake

I'm not ready for tomorrow, and that's okay

I borrowed five years' worth of patience in one go

Counted all my chances down to just one show

You came like the sun breaking through the grey

So now I'm counting on you until forever stays

Pre-Chorus

So say it slow, I want to hear it clear

Will you borrow me twice more this year?

Two turns left before the clock runs thin

Let's make these seconds count, just us in here

Chorus

Borrow me twice, let me stay right here with you

Bridge

Not a promise or a prayer that fades

I'm asking if you'll borrow time again, not trade it away

This isn't something we can put back on the shelf

It's borrowed time I want to spend right here in our own little world

Chorus

Borrow me twice, let me stay right here with you
