Borrowed Day

Verse 1

Pulled my coat on tight

Down the avenue past the factory light

Every window watching me go

Chasing something I don't even know

Pre-Chorus

And the wires are singing overhead

Keeping rhythm with the way that I tread

Chorus

Run with me through the amber haze

Through the mud and the morning praise

We're just trying to find a better way

Out from under this borrowed day

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Borrowed day

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

Your letters stack on the sill

Every line says come back if you will

I keep both my hands in my sleeves

Making promises I keep to the leaves

Pre-Chorus

And the radio hums an old refrain

Same as every winter down the lane

Chorus

Run with me through the amber haze

Through the mud and the morning praise

We're just trying to find a better way

Out from under this borrowed day

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Borrowed day

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bridge

Maybe I'm wrong

Maybe I'm right

Maybe I'll leave before the light

One more turn of the same green sign

One more river under my line

Chorus

Run with me through the amber haze

Through the mud and the morning praise

We're just trying to find a better way

Out from under this borrowed day

Borrowed day

Borrowed day
