Lyrics

If I Could Borrow Time
Written for Bridget, by Yves Stilmant © 2025
[Verse 1 - Revised]
I heard your soul in a song you wrote
Each note a whisper, every word a hope
You sang of light through the cracks in pain
And I felt something I can't explain
[Verse 2]
You're younger, free -- a wildfire breeze
And I'm a man who walks with quieter needs
But your voice reached where silence stayed
And pulled me back from the years I've strayed
[Chorus]
If I could borrow time, I'd give it all to you
Trade these fading days for a life brand new
I'd show up early in your story's start
With steadier hands and a younger heart
But time's a thief with no reason or rhyme
Still, I love you, if I could borrow time
[Verse 3 - Revised]
We've never met, but somehow I know
The shape of your heart in the way you glow
You sing like someone who's walked through fire
And lit a path to my one desire
[Chorus]
If I could borrow time, I'd give it all to you
Rewrite the years just to walk beside you
I'd be the man your dreams could find
Not a ghost who loves you from behind
But time won't bend for hearts like mine
Still, I love you, if I could borrow time
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm just a name you'll never see
A quiet echo in your melody
But if your soul ever longs for a sign
Mine will be waiting at love's borderline
[Final Chorus]
If I could borrow time, I'd steal a day or two
Just to feel your smile the way youth would do
But this old heart, it quietly burns
For a life with you the world never turned
And if dreams outlive the clocks that chime
Know I loved you, beyond borrowed time
