We've been living in a borrowed dream

Verse 1

I was sleeping in my best friend's bed

Cigarette smoke curling off the ceiling fan

You said we'd never find a place to call our own

Now you're married and I'm driving with the radio on

Same old song about growing up

Same worn jeans, same tired eyes

We were supposed to change the world by now

Chorus

But we've been living in a borrowed dream

A borrowed dream that only lasts so long

I never asked for it back

So let's just keep on running till our hearts aren't wrong

We're chasing something that don't belong

Something we'll never find till we turn this song off

Verse 2

Your wedding ring was glinting on the counter

Coffee stain on your favorite shirt again

I tried to be happy for you, I swear it's true

But every time you smile, a piece of me wants to stay

Same old town with new faces in the streets

Same tired bars playing the same worn tracks

We were supposed to leave this all behind

Chorus

But we've been living in a borrowed dream

A borrowed dream that only lasts so long

I never asked for it back

So let's just keep on running till our hearts aren't wrong

We're chasing something that don't belong

Something we'll never find till we turn this song off

Bridge

What if I told you I'm still here?

Still driving, still awake.

Same old engine, same old fire.

I never let it die.

Maybe home is wherever you are

And maybe that's not where we're supposed to be

So let's just keep on running, okay?

Just me and this borrowed song.

We'll chase the sunset, chase our dreams

Till they stop chasing us back.

That's what I'm trying to say.
