Noah and the Whale - Five Years Time

Oh well in five years time we could be walking ‘round a zoo
with the sun shining down over me and you
and there’ll be love in the bodies of the elephants too
and I’ll put my hands over your eyes, but you’ll peek through
and there’ll be sun sun sun all over our bodies
and sun sun sun all down our necks
and there’ll be sun sun sun and sun sun sun
all over faces and sun sun sun
so what the heck
Cuz I’ll be laughing at all your silly little jokes
and we’ll be laughing about how we used to smoke
all those stupid little cigarettes
and drink stupid wine cuz it’s what we needed to have a good time
but it was fun fun fun when we were drinking
it was fun fun fun when we were drunk
and it was fun fun fun when we were laughing
it was fun fun fun oh it was fun.
Oh well I’ll look at you and say, “it’s the happiest that I’ve ever been”
and I’ll say, “I no longer feel I have to be James Dean.”
And she’ll say, “yeah well I feel all pretty happy too,
and I’m always pretty happy when I’m just kicking back with you.”
And it be love love love all through our bodies
and love love love all through our minds
and it be love love love all over her face
and love love love all over mine.
And though if really all these moments are just in my head,
I’ll be thinking about them as I’m lying in bed
and I know that really, they might not even come true
but in my mind I’m having a pretty good time with you
oh in five years time I might not know you
in five years time we might not speak and
in five years time we might not get along
in five years time you might just prove me wrong.
Oh there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love love love whereever you go
there’ll be love.
