Loving on a Borrowed Time Songtext

von Ian Gillan

... and then she said
I'm gonna love you 'til the day I die
I turned around and saw a tear
In the corner of her eye
Sitting on the fence
The next afternoon
It didn't make a lot of sense
Not like that smoky room

I touched your hand
And felt a warmth that was reflected in your smile
I knew at once what we had started
Would be over in just a while
Hidden in the crowd
We touched a few times more
There was never any doubt
As we edged towards the door

And I don't know what you did to me
I was trembling at your touch
My feelings for you ran quick and deep
O Lord, we were loving on borrowed time

So sad, so sad I have to leave you now
I'm going home I'm going home
To my number one
Laughing off the pain I really have to go
You know we'll do it all again
In a while or so
