借 (伴奏版)

借一盞午夜街頭昏黃燈光
照亮那坎坷路上人影一雙
借一寸三九天裡冽冽暖陽
融這茫茫人間刺骨涼
借一泓古老河水九曲回腸
帶著那搖晃燭火漂往遠方
借一段往日旋律婉轉悠揚
把這不能說的輕輕唱
被這風吹散的人 說他愛得不深
被這雨淋濕的人 說他不會冷
無邊夜色 到底還要蒙住多少人
它寫進眼裡 他不敢承認
借一抹臨別黄昏悠悠斜陽
為這漫漫餘生添一道光
借一句刻骨銘心來日方長
倘若不得不天各一方
被這風吹散的人 說他愛得不深
被這雨淋濕的人 說他不會冷
無邊夜色 到底還要蒙住多少人
它寫進眼裡 他不敢承認
可是啊總有那風 吹不散的認真
總有大雨 也不能抹去的淚痕
有一天太陽會升起 在某個清晨
一道彩虹兩個人
借一方樂土讓他容身
借他平凡一生

Borrow (Accompaniment)

Borrow a streetlamp's dim glow in the midnight hour,
Casting light on figures crossing paths on roads that sour.
Borrow a sliver of sunlight on a frigid March day,
Melting the harsh chill that wraps this world in dismay.
Borrow an ancient river's meandering flow,
Carrying flickering candlelight as it gently does go.
Borrow a snatch of melody, graceful and serene,
To softly sing unspoken words that I have never seen.
He says his love is shallow, carried by the wind's breath,
And he will not feel cold when drenched by the rain's death.
How many must be concealed beneath this boundless night?
He reads it in her eyes, but cannot face the light.
Borrow the fading sunlight of an evening's last embrace,
To warm the ebbing flame that lights your lonely space.
Borrow a promise whispered low, a hope in days to come,
In case fate should tear us apart, leaving hearts numb.
He says his love is shallow, carried by the wind's breath,
And he will not feel cold when drenched by the rain's death.
How many must be concealed beneath this boundless night?
He reads it in her eyes, but cannot face the light.
But surely there's a wind that cannot blow away what's true,
A storm that cannot wash away the tears that stain your view.
The sun will rise one day, breaking through the morning's haze,
Casting a golden path for two, in love's endless maze.
Borrow a sanctuary, a haven for your soul,
Borrow an ordinary life, where love can make you whole.
