Living on Borrowed Love - George Benson

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…
