Borrowed Time Lyrics

I give you roses n' paper flowres
You give me love in return
Just like a movie with marlon brando
Like a torch it will burn

I'm ok as long as you're gonna stay
I'm alrite cuz we're livin' on borrowed time

Don't need to worry don't need to hurry
Juat awaitin' for the sun to go down
I need your blessing
don't keep me guessing
Don't wanna feel like a clown

It broke my heart just loving you
Before we got started we were through

I gave you roses n' paper flowres
Was it love in return
Just like a movie with marlon brando
My torch it did burn

I'm ok even though you won't stay
And I'll be alright now I'm livin' on borrowed time

livin' on borrowed time

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
