There comes a time
When you run out of options
And something inside you
Just has to move on
I had reached that point
Finally turned that corner
When I ran into you
I was running toward home...

You were out on your own
You thought it was over
You had been there before
Getting by
Getting older
Last thing you expected
One last lover
Funny, how things just worked out...

I wasn't looking for perfect
I wasn't dreaming of Heaven
I had nothing in mind
No particular direction
I was dead inside
Getting up
But not living
Till I turned...and saw your smile...

And you were there right on time
You had picked the right moment
Handing me life
Like I'd never known it
Piece by piece
All I had
You would own it
Loved you...like a child...

And you were all that I wanted
Human flaws
Human kindness
Warmth in the winter
Sunshine and starlight
I was proud of you darling
You were some kind of something
But rainbows don't last
But a while...

And I'd like to believe
If there's a thing called Heaven
You're at the right hand of God
Or with some...beautiful angel
And all that you gave
Is somehow still giving
Solace against the night
Not to worry...I'm not sorry
Just running down borrowed time...

And getting by...getting by
