about

Every other line in this song contains the name of a jazz standard. This explains the title - "Borrowed Words."

lyrics

Softly as a morning sunrise
softly that's how I think of you.

Stars hanging in the sky
Splintery white against a kind of blue.
Five hundred miles high,
That's how tall I could love you.

You leave me at a loss for words
so I guess I'll have to borrow a few.
