5 Years Time
Noah and the Whale Lyrics

Oh well, in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
Looking forward to a happy future together where we can stroll aimlessly in the sun amidst the wildlife in the zoo

With the sun shining down over me and you
The bright and warm sun symbolizes the love and happiness shining down on us

And there'll be love in the bodies of the elephants, too
Our love will radiate everywhere, even among the elephants in the zoo

I'll put my hand over your eyes but you'll peek through
Even if I try to hide something from you, you will always find a way to see through it

And there'll be sun, sun, sun all over our bodies
The abundance of sun represents the abundance of happiness and warmth we will share

And sun, sun, sun all down our necks
We will feel the rays of the sun on our necks, which reminds us of the closeness and intimacy we share

And there'll be sun, sun, sun all over our faces
Our faces will glow with the sunshine of our love and happiness

And sun, sun, sun, so what the heck
We don't really care about anything else as long as we have each other and our happiness

'Cause I'll be laughing at all your silly little jokes
We will continue to find each other's quirks amusing and love each other's sense of humor

And we'll be laughing about how we used to smoke
We will reflect on our past mistakes and find humor in them, which strengthens our bond

All those stupid little cigarettes and drink stupid wine
We have had fun, even while doing things we know are not necessarily good for us

'Cause its what we needed to have a good time
We are content with our choices because they brought us joy and happiness at the time

But it was fun, fun, fun when we were drinking
We have many happy memories associated with drinking and it reminds us of fun times

It was fun, fun, fun when we were drunk
Even when we were drunk, we still enjoyed each other's company and had fun

And it was fun, fun, fun when we were laughing
Laughing together is one of the most enjoyable things we can do

It was fun, fun, fun, oh, it was fun
In retrospect, all our times together were filled with joy and fun

Oh well, I look at you and say it's the happiest that I've ever been
I am grateful for the overwhelming happiness that you bring into my life

And I'll say I no longer feel I have to be James Dean
I no longer feel the need to put up a tough exterior or play a role, because with you I can be myself

And she'll say, yeah well, I feel pretty a happy too
You will happily reciprocate my feelings and say that you feel just as happy as I do

And I'm always pretty happy when I'm just kicking back with you
Being with you is enough to make me happy even when we are not doing anything special

And it'll be love, love, love all through our bodies
Our love will flow and spread through every inch of our bodies

And love, love, love all through our minds
We will constantly be thinking of one another and our love will fill our thoughts

And it'll be love, love, love all over her face
Our love and happiness will be evident in the glow on her face

And love, love, love all over mine
Our love and happiness will also reflect on my face

And though admittedly all these moments are just in my head
These moments may only exist in our imaginations, but they are still real to us

I'll be thinking bout them as I'm lying in bed
The thoughts of our happy times together will help me sleep peacefully at night

And I know that admittedly it might not even come true
Even though it may not come to fruition, we will be able to cherish these moments in our minds

But in my mind I'm havin' a pretty good time with you
We will enjoy each other's company, even if it means doing so only in our minds

Oh, in five years time I might not know you
Even though we hope for the best, it is possible that circumstances may change and we may not be together forever

In five years time we might not speak
It is possible that we may lose touch or drift apart, but that doesn't change the memories of the happy times we shared

Oh, in five years time we might not get along
It is possible that we may not share the same interests or views in the future, but we will always have the memories of the past

In five years time you might just prove me wrong
You may prove me wrong and we might still be together after five years, despite all the uncertainties

Oh, there'll be love, love, love wherever you go
We will carry the love and happiness that we shared with each other wherever we go

There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
Love will always follow us no matter where life takes us

There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
We have created a love that will never fade away

There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
Love will be a constant presence in our lives no matter what the future holds

There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
The power of love cannot be constrained by time or distance
