Five Years' Time ft. Nolo & Ben Varney Lyrics

Just a little time

So fast, rushing

Chasin' the sun

Time flies

Five 'Am, the roseate blushin' of the sky

Six 'Am, the sunshine, my, oh my

Edging towards the noontide; running out of time

Don't have to face it, if so inclined

Eight 'Am, the mornin' tickin' down the drain (down the drain)

'Bout time the townsmen work 'n prime

Ten 'Am, the children hide n' seek n' find (seek n' find)

This ain't gon' be here in five years' time

Isn't it magical

Two people, both struggling with their own time and energy…dreams

Then this little happy conversation happens; out of nowhere

And for a few moments, it's as if none of that ever was

Y'know, it's all part of a funny game

After which nothing was quite the same

Did it matter? Flirting with a banter and a chatter

Where to next? No one cared.

I'm on my own, strollin' down this road

Too young to stop, too old to go

My love dreams? My own fantasies

Oh, just like me. A no-show.

But do think about my family

How lucky I'm to be, and simply be

And do think about my legacy

And society, and how we worship thee

None's of certain longevity

Yet we matter, once or twice

To a soul or to thine's five years' time

It'll feel quite empty, though really not

As a bottle of wine

Quite clouded by time

Yet in hindsight, 'tis just as fine

To those whose sentiments outweigh the mind

Life's not forgotten; 'tis simply refined

Should everything be lost in Five Years' Time

A me, a you, a lover, and a swine

We'd not be lost, and conversely so

We'd be a dazzle 'gainst the horizon of time

Five 'Am, the roseate blushin' of the sky

Six 'Am, the sunshine, my, oh my

Edging towards the noontide; running out of time

Don't have to face it, if so inclined

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

Eight 'Am, the mornin' tickin' down the drain (down the drain)

'Bout time the townsmen work 'n prime

Ten 'Am, the children hide n' seek n' find (seek n' find)

This ain't gon' be here'n five years' time

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family
