My shoulder rests a road I only follow
Love only borrowed
Innocence so near
Speakin' of the deer who has been spared
But I believe in wastin' the years
Speakin' of the deer who has been spared
But I believe in wastin' the years
A far cry from here
A far cry from here
There's belongin' in just longin' for someone
Love only borrowed
And I've placed myself at ease
Listenin' to the lies and self-belief
Innocence so near
A far cry from here
But I believe in wastin' the years
Of givin' someone time enough for spendin'
A far cry from here
For wantin' somethin' close enough for keepin'
Innocence so near
Some are sad but true to know
Even still, the night is passin'
A far cry from here
Speakin' of the deer who has been spared
Distance stands the swallow's heart from lendin' me
Love only borrowed
Behind a heart an emptiness still follows
