Story behind the song
Life is transient- conciousness is ephemeral; we fall in and out of love but the world continues to turn and the ocean will lap at our feet.
Lyrics
BREATHING ON BORROWED TIME Words and Music by Karena Wynn-Moylan. c. 1998 V1. Sea Green, sky blue Things that turn inwardly, silently. Secrets and Lies, And revelations. Down on my knees, My head in the clouds and you're telling me You don't know, How could you know, REFRAIN: When you're Breathing on Borrowed Time. Breathing On Borrowed Time Stealing this feeling, Breathing. V2. Torn into three, Hearts flutter, fall to the floor, And are found ,shivering and wise, Seeking advice. Breezes trail words. Waves beckon drawn to the ocean's edge , we're poised Waiting for flight. We wake through the night. And we're Breathing On Borrowed Time, Breathing on Borrowed Time, Stealing , this feeling, Breathing. BRIDGE: We're Breathing, Breathing, Stealing this time together We're stealing, feeling, Feelings should last forever, We're Breathing, Breathing, Stealing this time forever, We're stealing , feeling, We're Breathing our time, It should last forever, forever , forever. INSTRUMENTAL BREAK - 8 BARS You know we're Breathing on Borrowed Time Breathing on Borrowed Time Stealing this feeling Breathing.
