Living On Borrowed Love

(album: Twice The Love - 1988)

You told me at the start
Someone else had filled
A place inside your heart
And though you both had gone
Your separate ways
Lou hoped to get him back, someday

I told you I didn't care
I'd be happy for
Whatever time we shared
But I got caught up in a trap
Now I can't accept the fact

I'm living on borrowed love
You'll never belong to me
Living on borrowed love
You're mine temporarily
And it's gonna he tough
To ever give you up
But it's what I get
For living on borrowed love

I thought that given time
Your love for him would die
And I could make you mine
Oh but now I see that I was wrong
Your love for him is much too strong

My time with you is slipping fast
So I love you
Like each day is my last
What's the use in us pretending
Ain't gonna be no happy ending

I'm living on borrowed love
You'll never belong to me
Living on borrowed love
You're mine temporarily
And it's gonna he tough
To ever give you up
But it's what I get
For living on borrowed love

The day I feared the most
Has finally come
You're going back to him
Why'd I have to be the one

Living on borrowed love
You'll never belong to me
Living on borrowed love
You're mine temporarily
And it's gonna be tough
To have to give you up
But it's what I get, baby
Baby, living, living, living
Living on borrowed love
You're mine temporarily
It's gonna be tough
To have to give you up
But it's what I get...
