Story Behind The Song
This song is about my sister-in-law (Kathy) who has been through more traumatic times in one year than most people have their entire life.
She keeps on going despite of losing her only beloved son (Matthew). Also, at the time I wrote this song, she was two months pregnant...
She believes that we are living on borrowed time and never take your life or anyone you love for granted...
It would sure be nice to have a crystal ball and have that one chance to change the outcome of what might or might not have happened in our life.

Lyrics
SHE WALKS BY FAITH AND FAITH ALONE.
THE LIFE SHE SAVES, MAY BE HER OWN.
IT TAKES TIME, AND PERSEVERENCE,
PATIENCE AND LOVE, AND A LITTLE ENDURANCE.
TEARS OF JOY, A CONSTANT SORROW.
REMEMBER THE PAST, HOPE FOR TOMORROW.
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME...
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED
TIME...
SHE TRUSTS IN LIFE, AND ALL ITS SPLENDOR.
GIVES HER ALL, A COMPLETE SURRENDER.
COURAGE OF A LION, PEACE OF AN ANGEL,
A HEART OF GOLD,
SHE'S BEEN THROUGH HELL...
HER LIGHT WILL SHINE,
FOR ALL TO SEE.
THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.
IS WHAT SHE BELIEVES
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
OOH'S AND AHH'S
HER LIGHT WILL SHINE,
FOR ALL TO SEE.
THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.
IS WHAT SHE BELIEVES...
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
LIVING, LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
