Borrowed Time Tonight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There were nights the shadows grew so long I held my breath and tried to stay strong With the Good Book open on the bed I whispered every prayer that I had said Searching for the words our babies need Asking heaven, please, just stay with me [Chorus] And love showed up like morning light Carried us through the darkest night Faith held tight when we couldn't see Gratitude for what we still could be Every breath, a gift, a song This is where our hearts belong [Verse 2] I asked myself what you would do If the storm had come for me, not you You'd pull me close, brush back my hair You'd just love me, make it all repair You'd promise me that we'd be alright And hold my hand all through the night [Chorus] And love showed up like morning light Carried us through the darkest night Faith held tight when we couldn't see Gratitude for what we still could be Every breath, a gift, a song This is where our hearts belong [Bridge] Lloyd, you stayed, you fought, you're here Every year I hold more dear Heaven heard our every plea [Verse 3] So here's to anniversaries we almost lost Here's to love that paid the cost Lloyd, my husband, my answered prayer The proof that God was always there We'll dance slow in the kitchen light Celebrate this borrowed time tonight Raise a glass to all the years ahead [Chorus] And love showed up like morning light Carried us through the darkest night Faith held tight when we couldn't see Gratitude for what we still could be Every breath, a gift, a song This is where our hearts belong [Outro] Lloyd, my forever, my truest friend I'd choose you again, and again
