    Lyrics to my song Borrow Borrow
    Morning Bird by the river bend
    Seeing her up after dawn make her way through the wooded land
    How I wish to look at you
    How I wish to talk to you
    But dare do I disturb
    This Beaty in the woods?
    Sheltered Girl under canopy
    Her Mom and Dad asleep at home in the trunk of knotted tree
    Turning my face away
    Looking away as she bathes
    her lanterns light
    Illuminates the night
    Borrow, Borrow
    Take all that you please
    All the earths most pretty things mean nothing much to me
    Till we meet
    Bare as eve in her revelry
    Misty rain so finely falls upon her merrily
    No I won’t be ravenous
    Knowing only crooks steal a kiss
    But who will deserve
    This beauty in the woods?
    Borrow, Borrow
    Take all that you please
    All the earths most pretty things mean nothing much to me
    Till we meet
    Shadowed landing up out of view
    I’ve lingered there most of my nights and wish to wade with you
    A doe a deer would silence me
    And though I dare not to speak
    All my loving words
    Echoe through these woods
    Borrow, Borrow
    Take all that you please
    All the earths most pretty things mean nothing much to me
    Till we meet

    6 years ago I taught myself to play it properly. It was so rewarding to be able to play such an beautiful, whimsical, enigmatic and iconic Lennon ballad. 6 months later I met a beautiful French woman. I sat at the bottom of her stairs at her's and played her the song. She was mesmerised. I didn't burn her place down, and she's now my partner. Thanks John!

    I love this song so much. It contains so much. Just a young lad from Liverpool suddenly in the world of the London rich and chic, his encounter with a woman, and it resonates with so much wistfulness, playfulness, tenderness, a sense of feeling for what it was like for Lennon at that time, a melodic romantic tenor about a very specific scenario he experienced. A story and a moment and a beautiful song and tale. Cornershop did a fun version of it singing the lyrics in Punjabi :)
