Can I Borrow Your Time Lyrics by Coconut Rootz
You left home with your lunch in a bag
I left a kiss on the counter, half-sad
You said, “Baby, this month gotta count”
Now the day take the whole of us out
We be chasing that gold in the rain
Trying to build, trying to break through the pain
But your name on my phone going thin
And I miss you even standing right in
So tell me, when the doors swing wide
Will you still have space by my side?
When the table full and the bills get paid
Will you still look my way?
Can I borrow your time?
Just a little of mine and yours
Can I borrow your time?
When the world gets loud, close that door
We can talk right here
We can breathe right now
Can I borrow your time?
Before it all runs out
You come in with that tired-eyed smile
Two more calls, then you’re gone for a while
I got dreams in the palm of my hand
But I don’t want to build them alone, baby
I seen couples turn into machines
Food on the table, but cold in between
Everybody saying, “Wait till we win”
But who we if we never let love in?
So tell me, when the lights hang low
And the applause don’t make us whole
Will your heart still know my name
Like it did before the change?
Can I borrow your time?
Just a little of mine and yours
Can I borrow your time?
When the world gets loud, close that door
We can talk right here
We can breathe right now
Can I borrow your time?
Before it all runs out
If we get the house and the car
If we get the plane and the stars
Will we still sit close on the floor
Like we did before?
I don’t need forever today
Just a minute where you stay
Look at me, stay with me
Stay with me
Can I borrow your time?
Just a little of mine and yours
Can I borrow your time?
When the world gets loud, close that door
We can talk right here
We can breathe right now
Can I borrow your time?
Before it all runs out
